Sandra has been my mom's best friend since college.   I've known her my WHOLE life.  When I home schooled, she was the person who sat there and monitored when I took every official test.  When I got married, I wore her wedding dress and tiara - 1960's vintage Victor Costa - beautiful!

Oh that's just tragic. :( I'm really sorry for her & both of your families. Hugs to all of you.

Amazing how much you resemble your mom in that picture above btw.

It's really sad. She's still hanging on but is not able to communicate verbally anymore. It's probably a blessing that she's going so quickly. She wasn't going to get better and she's been in a lot of pain. We're all going to miss her very much.

I love how much I look like my mom. Lucky me!

Mom made it to Seattle around 12:30am. Sandra knows she's there but can't communicate verbally anymore. She seems to understand what's being said and is responding as best she can.

Thanks so much . We're all very sad, but she was in more and more pain every day. She went peacefully in her sleep around 3am today. We're going to miss her a lot, but at lease she didn't have to continue suffering.
