Vicky,I'm so proud of you for making the decision that feelsright for you in your current status. I know you are thinkingof yourself as well as your entire family who love you somuch. I do know from my mother's passing on March 24(she had Bronchiectasis and never recuperated from pneumonia)that Hospice, in her case, was a great help. They were veryrespectful of our privacy but very attentive to my mother'scomfort at all times. They were also quite sensitive to themoods and feelings of the whole family. The morphine didease my mother's breathing when it became labored, andthat was a huge blessing the last two days.I appreciate your taking the time to post your thoughts andfeelings with us during this difficult time. You are verybrave and I know your faith will see you through. I'm gladyou are my friend, and I thank you for all the prayers youhave said for me.
