The lady is a magnificent blessing to us all. She is living with stage four breast cancer, taking heart from the support of family and friends too numerous to count.

IN MEMORIAM

Wednesday, November 5, 2008

Today started out with great promise. Marita was comfortable overnight and was dressed and ready early. It turned out to be filled with ups and downs.
Delores appeared for her weekly hospice visit.
Diane stopped in to say a quick hello on her way to work.
Rima and Shawna came after calling ahead to make sure Marita was doing okay. By time they arrived she was having considerable discomfort. It was a challenge to deal with the pain in conjunction with Marita's hearing and vision loss.
Glenda came to give the weekly Wednesday massage. These sessions have been a reliable bedrock of relief over time.
In the evening we attempted to do some of the PT exercises we were given the day before.
