Thank you for your prayers. They worked. Mama is no longer in pain.
The doctors said two days to three weeks after she was taken off her machines she would die. She lasted about an hour. She must've been a lot sicker than we thought.
Love you, mama, see you soon.

I'm so happy for your mom. She's there. She's well. No more pain, confusion or hanging on. Her best living has just begun. Our best to you and Karen, Jennifer, Kelsey and James.

Oh, Jimmy. My heart goes out to y'all, all the while rejoicing with the saints that your Mama's home with Jesus. May the love of the Lord wash over all of you during this time and comfort you - and may joy come in the morning. God bless you all. We'll be praying and thinking of you. Steve & Janie
