11:53pm Friday.

Trish has now had two periods of restful sleep today. But for us it really didn't appear restful. Her breathing is strained, she groans with each breath. She is sedated on the pain meds and should not be feeling any pain. I call for the nurse to give her a booster dose if I think she is in pain. Thanks to Trish's sister spending the night with her last night I slept for the first time in a week Thursday night. This is starting to become a long process and it is wearing all of us down. The boys are starting to forget the great visit they had with Trish Sunday morning and starting to remember her labored breathing of more recent days. We hope for something bright, but would settle for an end to her suffering. This knife edge is truly a tough walk for all.
