We originally opened this CaringBridge site several years ago when my mom had her heart surgery. I have reopened it to keep friends and family updated regarding her current health condition. Last August, Mom's congestive heart failure worsened. From September until now, we have given it our all to tame the progression of this disease. After 11 days at the hospital, we have now run out of treatment options. Mom will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow to begin Hospice care at home. We do not have a timeline for her disease progression but our goal now is to keep her comfortable and enjoy the time we have left together. Please use this site to send mom messages, share stories, and upload pictures. I will share every entry with her and I know she would treasure hearing from you. I have only begun the distribution site for this list. Please share the site information with others are interested.
