More about Nana.

[linden_jay]

It's not going to be long. Months turned into weeks, which is rapidly turning into days or less. Everyone in the family is being called, we've got doctors and nurses and hospice people making house calls, and we've got some of the strongest cough medicine known to man to try and get her to stop going into spasms. She's on the top of the waiting list to get into the hospice program, but I don't think we've got that long. And if we did, I don't know how we'd move her.

She's very agitated right now, although we're working on it, and the only time she cried was when the nurse told her that she thought Nana needed to be back in the hospital. We're going to try everything humanly possible to keep that from happening. It's the only thing she's asked for, and if at all possible, we want to honour that.

I don't know when I'll be around. Please keep thinking of us.

Thank you so much. She went out calmly and peacefully, and at eighty-six years, I think that's really about the best that can happen.
