Goodbyes

Peter's mom called tonight to say goodbye.  She is dying and not expected to last more than a few days, possibly going even tonight.  She told us that she loved us and to take care.  Only God knows what is in her heart, we have prayed, preached and prayed some more for her.  Hospice has taken over and is giving her as much morphine as possible to ease her pain.  The tests show a large mass in her lungs, suspected cancer and she didn't want to go through any further tests due to her age.  She's 81 this year and is very tired due to the pain she's been putting up with.
We are expecting to drive out to WA to close her estate in the next couple of weeks.  We can't really afford to stay out there very long due to working our business for our financial well being.
It's sad but true that we need to keep working to keep paying the gas prices and feeding ourselves.
