Subject: [ ] Farewell to Aunt Leona

Just wanted to let all know that followed my Aunt Leona's journey since her

broken hip that it ended yesterday. Speaking of paradigm shifts the Hospice

personal also didn't understand how twice NV pulled Aunt Leona out of her

death bed (twice prior the funeral home was called to prepare)...but Aunt

Leona is in NYC and I live in Florida- one of the aids came to work sick

-cough, fever, and gave it to Aunt Leona and then the other aids got sick

too. I just find it sad because she was feeling stronger and was starting to

walk again.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I know you loved her SO

much and have been under so much sadness lately. I hope you find comfort in your

great memories of her. From what you've shared, she was an amazing woman! Call

me if you would like to talk! Love you girl!

Oh , I'm so very sorry for your loss. I had the pleasure of meeting your

beautiful aunt and she was a very sweet lady. My grandmother fell the same way

and was alone for at least a day or so before someone found her. Thats when we

moved her out. She passed a few months later. I'm so very, very sorry. She will

be in my thoughts for the next few days. Are you coming to NY?

I want to thank everyone so much for your kind thoughts about my Aunt Leona.

It's been hard because while I know at 89 years old she lived a good long life,

I also know she wasn't ready to die, she was getting better and they were just

talking about getting her more PT for walking...when an aide came to work sick

and gave it to her. I don't know if I mentioned it but Aunt Leona is addition

to everything else had emphysema and she never smoked a day in her life. But

years ago -doctors in the hospital used to smoke and she used to sit in the

closed rooms with all the smoking doctors and would breath in all that second

hand smoke. She would cough but was too polite to say anything- and back then

they didn't know the dangers of smoking so of course didn't know that second

hand smoke could be a killer too.

So due to her emphysema even in her healthier days a cough and fever wouldn't be

good -but this was just too much, and after two weeks of trying to fight it -and

not wanting drugs. Just 4 days before she died her and I were on the phone and

she was singing the song Joy Joy Joy to me and we both laughed...but this is

when she was sick so the laughing made her start coughing. I knew it wasn't

good. Ironic that a woman who spent her entire life helping others (from when

she was but just a little girl herself in the orphanage as she felt responsible

to take care of her little sister and brother -her sister being my mom) and

after years of working in the army and through hospice etc. as a nurse and as a

PhD in nursing teaching others how to be a nurse... would die due to someone

coming to care for her sick when they should have stayed home.

I just so appreciate all she taught me in her wise yet funny ways. One of her

statements to me was some of what was accepted as fact 50 years ago is laughed

at today. To question everything- probably why I dig so much and don't just

accept an opinion from anyone no matter who they are without question. Again

she used to work with doctors that smoked...in the hospital- really!

Thank you so much for all the compassionate thoughts -it doesn't take away the

pain of her loss, but it is comforting to know there are so many wonderful

people that care about others in the world. I so appreciate that -thank you!

Just saw this and wanted to offer my deepest sympathy for the loss of your aunt.

The brief stories you told me about her gave me the distinct impression that the

niece did not fall far from the aunt's tree. God rest her soul and may you find

peace in knowing she led such a remakable life.

Sincerely,

Nora Brock

Thank you so much- love " the niece did not fall far from the Aunt's tree " :) I

just packed to fly out tomorrow for my Aunt Leona's funeral -and I'm here to try

to keep my mind off of the fact she isn't here...it's not easy even though I

know she did live a very good long life! I wish she could still be here to be

my go to person as she just had so much information on so many areas with her

background in medicine.

This was one of Aunt Leona's favorite places to visit as she traveled all over

the world

I'm so lucky I got to go

with her there.
