9:41am Saturday

Trish slept through the night. The last time she was lucid was Friday morning. Her blood pressure is now 44 over 33 and the end game is clear. She will be home soon in more ways than one. Our efforts were not in vain, without the trials of the last two years, she would have had no chance. We gave her the best chance and we just aren't able to make it across the finish line we expected to cross.

There will be lots of tough times ahead for those of us who remain, but we will meet our challenges -- as best we can -- using the example she always provided. She always met all of life's obstacles head on and without fear. She always was simple and pure honest and true. She didn't make excuses, she just did her best. We can all learn much from her example. I know I have and hope that I can only be half the person she is.
