No Change

Thanks so much for all the caring comments. She is still holding on. She is very strong willed and it looks like she will fight this until the end. Steve's dad is doing as well as can be expected. It has been a long ordeal for all of us. We stayed there last night as long as we could. Everyone is tired but we really don't want her to be alone. His dad is a diabetic and needs to take care of himself too. He is getting confused about the days & what is going on sometimes.  He has been going home at night so maybe a schedule needs to be worked out between the kids.
She seems very peaceful. They started to give her morphine yesterday in case there is any pain. Her lungs are filling with fluid so they have her on an oxygen mask . It just a matter of when she is ready.
My dad died over twenty years ago of a heart attack. Looking at her lying there reminds me of what we went through then. Medical technolgy has come a long way since then. Still, we aren't on this earth forever. Like it or not. And life does go on without us. I am hoping that being a caring, loving person is the memory that people will have of me when I am gone.
Yesterday as a distraction, I ordered more seeds from Seed Savers in Iowa. Also some transplants of peppers & tomatoes. When I get the chance I'll list the kinds I ordered...

Here are some pics from the weekend.
