Mike is shutting down. It was a drastic change within the last 24 hours to where he is now. He is home, he is the most peaceful I have ever seen him be. No labored breathing, no tremors, just deep unresponsive sleep. The Hospice Nurse has been here. He asked me if I wanted Mike to go the Hospice House and I told him no. Mike had told me that he wishes to die at home, so in these final days/weeks/hours? I will honor his last request.
He goes to a better place. He will be mugged by the animals we have rescued over the years that have passed on before him. I know Taylor and Racer are especially waiting for him over the Bridge.A little boy waits there too. He has red hair and long, lanky legs and arms to envelop him in a loving hug.
God speed my Love- despite how cranky I got at times, I love you and always have. God take him swiftly- he has been through so much. I hope you have ear plugs ready though, for he loves to tell his stories especially to a new audience.
Yes, God is now in control. You have been the anchor in the storm, the calm in smooth waters, and all that is good in a human being. You have repeatedly and consistently weathered any storm that has come your way not only with strength, grace and dignity, but with courage to meet head on the uncertainties of the unknown. You are remarkable Mary Anne and through all you have been through, your faith in God has never faltered. I pray for continued strength and peace during this difficult time for you.
May his last moments on Earth be full of peace, and that he knows he is loved. I am so very sorry.
I will continue to keep you in my prayers, as well as for Mike. I hope you have someone to come and give you care and comfort too.
