ginnyde Posted May 21, 2004 Share Posted May 21, 2004 My dear friends, It is with great sadness that I have to tell you the my dear, dear sister lost her brave battle about 3 hours ago. She had been in the hospital in Tulsa for about 9 days with complications from her feeding tube. She then got sepsis. She was a fighter and fought as hard as she could. We knew this a.m. that she had had a bad night and her daughter was fighting to get her back into ICU. I was not there because of Earl - so hard to make that decision. Her daughter said she died very peacefully and gave her a final wonderful present - right before she died, she smiled. Her daughter also put the phone up to her ear before hand, so I got tell her goodbye. I will miss her forever. She was my mentor, my friend and my sister. We spoke everyday and laughed everyday. My children and I will be going to Tulsa on Monday for the Memorial service. Will be back late Tuesday or early Wednesday. Earl's daughter will come here and take care of her Dad. Thank you for the prayers for my sister, I am sure they helped her be peaceful at the end. Ginny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
