An update.
As I write this I am getting ready to relieve the nighttime caregiver that all of you who donated helped me hire for a couple days each week. I would have been squeezing in winks in a chair next to her in home hospital bed (thank you hospice) otherwise. As for her...

She's getting near the end. We all know this in my family, including her. With the level of pain she is enduring and has endured, there will be some relief in knowing when this is over, as much as it will shatter me, she won't be suffering so intensely. She doesn't deserve that.
Because of all of you, Ive been able to help her so much more than I could have done alone. Medicine, diapers, nutritional needs, even the ability to hire a person to help me physically lift her these last 2 weeks from one side of her bed to another...you don't know what it means
She has few moments of clarity now. She used to check my tweets all the time. She used to tell me to pass along messages to people on here with her thanks for your love and support.
She cannot do that now but I know she would def want me to. So, from my mom to you: thank you.

If you go through uncertain times, I offer you this Maggieism that made me exactly who I am today:
"It's OK, it'll be an adventure."
"It's OK, it'll be an adventure."
Happier times in 2016. Notice her message by her hand holding glasses: Mom Loves You!
I know it.
I know it.
