Confessions of a hospice patient

I am keeping watch. I am part of Amber's vigil.

Thank you all for your love and prayers for Amber and our family. Amber has been in a comatose state since early Friday morning but her body has not shut down yet. The hospice nurse can only say that possibly because of the strenth of her 31 year old body and heart she is taking longer to move on to the next step. She is comfortable and not in pain, although I believe she is aware mentally. We are still waiting for our miracle which is her peaceful passing to heaven. The kids and I are benefitting greatly from your prayers. Now we wait.

Amberz Hubby hugs and prayers for each of you. I am knowing when she gets to heaven she will watch out for each of you. She will leave lots of love behind to carry you thru. God bless.
God bless our dear sister and her family. Amen

PRAYERS and (((HUGS))))

hugs and prayers...i lost my mom to cancer when I was 10. She was the mom of 5 kids also. I always think about how she must have felt knowing she was leaving her children. Just know that for us kids, while mom wasn't here physically, she was always with us and was the common bond that kept all of us kids close...i truly feel for you and your family.

God Bless you, Amber, Dan and family.

I am keeping watch. I am part of Amber's vigil.
May angels of mercy surround you in this amazing moment of Amber's body & soul preparing to depart our earthly home.
We stand together with you, in unison.
We send prayers for your strength in the process of letting go.
I know that you've been telling her your "I love you" and I trust that she is hearing that and feels the love surrounding her. What a tribute to her faith-filled journey.

I am also keeping watch over Amber and am part of her vigil. I pray for peace and comfort to Amber, Dan and family. Dan, you are an incredible husband and father and an inspiration to all caregivers. Amber is an amazing woman with such courage, strength and faith. We are better people for knowing her, even just the little that some of us do.
You are all in my prayers and many, many breast cancer sisters are praying for you also.
