    I am so sorry for the loss of your dear MIL. I am glad you were able to be there with her. I lost my MIL 6 days after our wedding in September of '08. Thank you for your kind words and prayers.

    The hospice nurse came today and took vitals. Non's blood pressure is down to 68/40. The nurse said she should make it through the night, but no longer than 72 hours. I am going there tomorrow afternoon and staying the night. My parents will be in tomorrow night. I think Non is waiting for my dad. The whole family agrees. My poor dad just is so upset that he could not get out sooner. I just wish I could take everybody's pain away, especially my Non's.

    I will update tomorrow. I am so tired, I'm going to try to get some sleep. Thank you again for all the nice words and prayers.

    Thank you all for the thoughts, prayers, and hugs. It means a lot to know I many people praying for my dear Non.

    I tried to sleep, I just can't. I need to, I know that, but it just is not working!! Just though I'd stop on PT real quick and say thank you, I really do appreciate all the support.

    I'm really sorry about your Nonna. I know what you mean about the traditions that are a part of her and the family. Hugs to you and your family in this difficult time. I hope she is comfortable. Some of the 'italianisms' you wrote of made me smile. My Nonna and Nonno used to use that language when they were alive. I think of my grandad when someone says the word 'chicken' or 'cake'.... he used to pronounce it 'Ooo chickenah' or 'Aaah Caek'.

    My very deepest sympathy, Tracy. Gentle hugs and prayers for you and your beloved grandmother.

    I just wanted to thank everybody for the virtual hugs, thoughts, and prayers.

    My Nauna passed away peacefully yesterday, January 28th, at 2:45am with several family members, including myself, at her bedside.

    I have never met a stronger person. She waited for everybody and fought so hard to stay. I am not much into going into details now, as I am only on about 5 hours of sleep since I woke up Monday. I would like to share her remarkable journey to Heaven with you, but when I am in a better state of mind. I will post tomorrow night after I return from Non's house.

    Thank you again, very much. (((HUGS))) to all of you.
