My thoughts and prayers are with Emma and all the family as I know exactly
what you are going through. My mother was diagnosed with cancer and chose to
remain home where we lovingly cared for her. I frequently spent time in the
last couple of days reading A Chid's Garden of Versus to my mother...this
was a book she had read to me for years when I was young and that is how I
learned to appreciate poetry.
Cry freely, laugh freely, remember all the good times with each other end
share them with Emma.
It is a remarkable journey, this end of life thing....for all involved.
Remember to take care of yourselves also.
We found Kaiser to be absolutely fantastic and their hospice program really
helped me to deal with many of the issues we faced.
I only know Emma through SAQA and have only spoken briefly over the years at
meetings. She has always been a warm and friendly woman with a great laugh.
Please tell her I am with her in spirit and are so many other people whose
lives she has touched.
Blessings to you all and keep in mind that the strength of the Lord is with
you all
with care and love,
Liz Berg
