| Notes |
- 27 Feb 2014:
To all,
Mother, Sarah Hennessee, is no longer in hospice care. Appears death isn't so imminent. She moved back to the care center of the Masonic home where she was prior to going to the hospital and then to the hospice center.
She's still bedridden, can't use her left arm, has a broken pelvis and dementia. Hope for improvement seems dim.
Please pray that she recovers or her suffering ends. She sends her love.
Last, pass the word along to those in the family I don't have contact info for.
Sincerely,
Bob [4]
