Journal entry by Mandy Quinn —
We were called from the ER on Tuesday, May 19. Mom has been taken there from Kindred with a low oxygen saturation and possible aspiration. While in the ER, her pulse continued to drop until it stopped. They coded her and she regained her pulse. Dad was able to come on and spend time with her until she was moved to ICU. She continued to hold on through the night, but if I want to be realistic it was the medication that was keeping everything going. We received the call that she passed at 8:00 on May 20. We are all very sad for ourselves and missing her. We are also happy for her that she’s no longer in pain and has been reunited with so many loved ones. Thank you for your continued prayers and support. Her wishes were to be cremated. We will have a graveside service in the next couple of weeks.
