My mom called me around 12:30pm today to tell me they were going to move Grammy. We went up to be with the family for the evening, and get her settled. Grammy has been moved from the hospital to a Hospice center. It is a very nice place, with room for all of us to be with her. It is quiet and peaceful, and the staff are such wonderful, caring people. The Lord has blessed them with a special gift. (I'll write about that more when it's not midnight and we have to be back in Pueblo in the morning. We drove home to sleep and shower basically.)
She's been taken off everything except the oxygen, and they are giving her pain medicine to keep her pretty sedated so that she is not having all the involuntary movement. They have told us it will not be long, her blood pressure is very low, and she is not getting any nourishment, no IV's or anything. She looks like she is in a peaceful sleep, and has been unresponsive since Tuesday. She is basically in a coma now, it's up to the Lord how long before He calls her home. We are kind of expecting it to be sometime Tuesday, since it will be exactly three years since my Granddad passed away on that day. My dad is taking this really hard. Please pray for us all...

I'll be praying for you guys. Again, let me know if there's anything I can do to help.
I'm glad she's in a place where you can all visit, and that she's resting comfortably. I'll be praying that this helps to bring your family even closer together.
Sounds like a very peaceful place for her to spend her last days. I truly love Hospice for the way they care for people. I'll pray for you all...
Hang in there girl. I hope this just turns into a time when you can love on your family.
I want you to know that I will be praying for you and your family.
I have been blessed by your blog and look forward to reading more in the future. Again,you and your family will be in my prayers and will also add you to my Church list as well.
