Now we see through a veil darkly...

How prophetic mom's words were when she said, "Bye Bye" at the prospect of going on liquid morphine.  She is slipping deeper and deeper behind the veil and I plan to prepare today and tomorrow for the end.  

Mom seems to be comfortable.  We have never exceeded the 2 ml per 2 hour maximum dosage on the prescription.  Applications with the eyedropper are always in 1/2 mil doses and often that is enough for two hours or more so we don't anticipate that the concentration will need to change as Hospice suggested might be necessary.

Right now I see things playing out like this.  Ray and I will consult and call the troopers for the death certificate.  Then mom and the "girls" had wanted time for family viewing in her favorite dress before the crematory takes her away.  That has to happen within twenty four hours.  Some time after that we will have the "birthday party" and/or memorial service.  All thoughts and contributions would be appreciated.

Later today I hope to post a draft obituary for family critique.
