Re: Please send my family prayers, we could use all the love we can get.
Thank you so much for the prayers and words of love. I really needed to wake up to some today. I updated in a previous post, so today is going to be a hard day. I will be with my Dad and another Aunt. Her kids will be with her as her ventilator comes off.

Its in God's hands right now, and I've made peace with that. I'm just worried what this will do to my dad and grandma (90 years old)
My Uncle passed away last year on Oct. 23rd and that almost killed her.

And my Dad has lived with my aunt for the last 17 years. They both got divorced around the same time and leaned on each other for support. Shes his best friend.

I will update later tonight when I get back home. I don't use my phone around him out of respect unless its an actual phone call.

Again, Thank You so much for the love, prayers, and words of wisdom. It was wonderful to wake up to while drinking coffee.

My aunt has been off the ventilator for 8 hours now, she's very weak still. Her vitals aren't good, but they aren't terrible. I'm very happy she is finding the strength to fight. Doesn't hurt that she is pissed off at me for being the reason she was on a vent. I'll gladly take it all. Gladly. She can yell at me later.

I have barely slept since Saturday, so I am going to take tonight to rest up.

A huge thank you to all my prayer warrior's. The fights not over, but I can see tiny miracles happening.

Re: Please send my family prayers, we could use all the love we can get.
So today I was able to sit with her for a few minutes, her covid test came back negative so one person at a time was allowed in.

She was responsive, but not very much. I could tell she could hear me. But she wouldn't open her eyes. I know she did open her eyes with her kids when they asked if she wanted a DNR when her ventilator comes out. She opened them wide and nodded yes.

Today doctors tried to lower the oxygen to see if the ventilator could be turned off and she started to crash. She's just not strong enough. Tomorrow morning, the ventilator is coming out.

Today I got to tell her how much I love her. How much her brother (my Dad who she's lived with for 18 years) loves her. I told her I would take care of him no matter what, and for her not to worry about him. I said he wouldn't be alone, and she nodded her head and squeezed my hand (lightly). I know she could hear me.

The doctors don't have high hopes. I could see it in their faces. Too much damage was done, and it apparently wasn't the first event she had, she had more that went untreated.

I just pray she isn't in pain. I'm glad she and her Son and Daughter have a chance to say goodbye, many people don't get that.

Thats good to hear.... It sounds like she is stable and is gaining if she is off the ventilator.. For her now it will be rest rest rest.

Now as she is stable I doubt there will be anything major to occur for a while... the next stage likely will be to go to the next stage of recovery and build strength and stamina, but not for a while.

This is a time now for YOU to take stock and rest yourself... Eat plenty and drink plenty When we worry we forget to do these things. Shes in good hands take a little time now for YOU and those close around who are supporting you.
IF YOU HAVE A FEVER DO NOT LOWER IT WITH MEDS.... A FEVER IS AN IMMUNE SYSTEM RESPONSE TO A PATHOGEN (VIRUS, BACTERIA ETC..) IT MEANS YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM IS WORKING PROPERLY....DONT USE DRUGS TO LOWER YOUR TEMP.

Re: Please send my family prayers, we could use all the love we can get.
We started palliative sedation or otherwise known as twilight anesthesia. She is up to 4mg of morphine and a dose of ativan every hour.

She is not long. Tonight I got to sit around her bed with her two kids, two grandsons and her sister. We got to share happy memories while surrounding her with love. The night ICU nursing staff was amazing.

I watched her oxygen saturation go from 90 at the highest, to 20 at the lowest when she thought she was alone. I made a noise when it got low (on accident) and it went back up to 45-47. She isn't on a ventilator, just oxygen through the nose. When her oxygen was high her grandsons were talking. She must have been very happy. It was low when everyone but me left.



I just got a call to go back. Her heart is rate is down to 60.

Re: Please send my family prayers, we could use all the love we can get.
She passed away at 11:26pm central time. She had a good last day. No, a wonderful last day. Surrounded by all her boys, and all her girls. She held on as long as she could.


She did exactly what I thought she would do, she waited until we were all gone so she could slip quietly away.

I have been humbled these last few days by all the love and support I have received. I don't post often, I'm more of a lurker and a prayer warrior when needed. Thank you all for the words of kindness and wisdom. I'd be stuck in a cycle of grief and self doubt if it weren't for you guys.

You did good, kiddo. You gave her a couple of more days that she wouldn't have had. Your family was able to say goodbye. That's important and you made it happen.

Thank you LittleMe, Texan Buckeye and Tiger, the family is doing ok. We were really worried about the ICU bill, but some wonderful amazing anonymous donor, covered the ENTIRE bill. I'm completely humbled and in awe.

There's a weight off my shoulders that I didn't know was even there.

Now I just have the job of moving my father out of his apartment and into my home as seamlessly as possible. They were crazy old divorced bats who leaned on each other. Lord help me they were hoarders. But, he's my best friend, so I just can't wait to make coffee for him every morning and parade him around for all the widows in my neighborhood.

Its hard to believe its only Thursday.

You are most welcome, my dear! hugs

She’s watching over your father, she’s a precious angel now. She will visit him in his dreams.

Enjoy every second you spend with your father... spoil him the same way he used to do it when you were his beautiful little baby girl.

And it’s okay to cry, but she’s in a beautiful place. I know we miss them so much but at the same time we should happy for them cuz they are in OUR FATHER’s arms!

Everything it’s gonna be fine, you guys have an angel watching over the family!
