Nearing the end

I've just had a call from my dad to discuss "final arrangements" with regard to my mom. It seems that this really is the end. We were hoping for a better outcome, but the treatment she's on my not help prolong her life in time. And if it does, it will not be more than a few months at best.

Her birthday is 29 November. I was scared she may not make it to her birthday - and it seems my fears were well-founded.

Please keep my dad, her family, and us in your prayers as we near the end of her long journey. Thanks.
