Waiting

Mom is still here. Still slowly moving around in bed from time to time, and doing her best to stay...I think she is waiting for her sister, Nenette, to arrive. Bob and I are still cherishing every hand squeeze and slight head nod because we know that mom is still herself through all this. I don't know how she does it.

Mom has not consumed anything, but her meds, for the last three days. My "Auntie" Nitz arrives at 7:30p tonight. I believe in my heart mom will still be here for that reunion.

  1. May God's love, compassion and presence surround your mom and all of you during these hours Katie. I have been keeping up with your blog even though at times I find it difficult to find sleep thinking about her. I dreamt with her about 3 nights back and she had her usual bright smile and more radiant than ever. It was a gift to have had her in my life in the good old Kendall days. Her influence played a role in who I am today. I send my prayer to all of you. Rossana

  2. Thank you, Rossana! I remember those Kendall days, even though I was only a young kid back then. She hears your well-wishes and prayers...
