Friday Update

Lots of short visits the last few days with family and friends, coupled with a requested change in the hospice team – all tiring but good. Today Annie’s a little weaker, tired and unsteady on her feet. The new hospice nurse was by this morning and is wonderful. Pain still not an issue, while dizziness and nausea still persist. Her BP was down while her heart rate was up, which are not good signs but expected parts of the process. We were cautioned not to be surprised if her condition deteriorates in the next weeks, even days. But she’s still “all there” mentally and she’s aware of your prayers and support. No one could have better friends than she does.

    Of course, my prayers are flowing for Noel. I have also kept Sister Mary Jo Coyle informed since she doesn’t use e-mail much. I pray too for Clark, John and Luke. May all the prayers bring comfort to all of you.

    I recently read that our lives are not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away. Ann, I have never known anyone else who has been so open to those moments or embraced life with such joy. Clark refers to us as “your friends”-believe me, it is an honor and a bond that will never be broken. We are with you in love and faith always. Patty

    Noel, I think of you often and treasure our friendship. Your strength during this very difficult journey has been awe-inspiring. Thank you and Clark for allowing us to share in some small way in your life these many months. With Don and Elizabeth, I send constant prayers to you and your family, knowing that Jesus and His Blessed Mother are at your side. Much love, Emily
