My mom had a horrible night last night (Monday night). She was in so much pain. It was unbearable to watch. She was vomiting and nauseated and could not get comfortable. Today, the CT scan results are not good. It seems that her liver is retracted, her colon burst, a bowel obstruction, pneumonia in both lungs and a few more things I cannot think of right now. Her chance of survival with surgery is less than 5% with all of these things against her. They are keeping her comfortable with morphine. She seems to be resting. Her breathing is labored already. We don't know how long it will be. I came home for a shower, but am heading back to spend the night.
Please pray that she goes peacefully and with no pain. This morning she told me that if she dies today she will be in Heaven. I am praying for a great homecoming for her with her Savior and all her loved ones who have gone before her - my dad, her parents and many siblings. What a rejoicing there will be. I am so thankful I have had her all these years. I am blessed.
