A Tribute to a Great Woman

My mom is very sick as you all know. She is terminally ill and has been in the Nathan Adelson Hospice. She is now at Linda's house receiving in-home hospice care. She will not live much longer. She has been fighting for years now a rare blood disease in which her bone marrow originally worked too hard and now it doesn't work hard enough to keep her healthy. The picture above was taken on the last day that Mom was coherent. I'm so glad that I could sit by her for six days in the hospice along side other family members and friends and share her final moments on this earth. All that I am or ever hope to be, I owe to my darling mother. I will miss her.
