Hi Ladies: it's been a long week and I've fallen behind on PC. My mother passed away peacefully yesterday morning. Today I guess is the calm before the storm-viewing, funeral, etc., start tomorrow. Thanks for all your good wishes and prayers.
If I've learned one thing, and I'd like to share it with all of you: have a Living Will. Please. My mother was unresponsive, not taking fluids since Monday. They wanted to pass a feeding tube and start IV's. Thankfully, she had a Living Will stating HER wishes not to have these things done. Please, please make it easy on your loved ones like she did--state your wishes. Okay, off my soapbox.
Will be back on the PC trail soon.
Peace-Jan
