Journal entry by Meredith and Nick Lotito —
After a few great weeks of pure clarity and such a strong rally by our beloved Donna, it saddens me to share she has started to decline. Just in the last few days, it's been dramatic. She's sleeping most of the time and her appetite has diminished considerably. She knows the end is near. She's at peace. She's made all her plans known - we have our marching orders! Now, we do just as she has requested. Donna has loved visiting with all of you, loved your well wishes and your cards (Bobby Turner you are amazing!) all the meals and friendship have filled her heart with joy. It's meant the world to her that so many of you have reached out to share your love. No one could ask for a better send off. In this time of declining energy, we hope you will understand we can no longer allow visitors. Please know this is what Donna wants. Send your love and prayers for her peaceful transition. She loves you all 'right back'! I promise to keep you posted.
