I Am Not the Person I Used to Be
I wrote a previous post about a friend of mine who was deeply affected with cancer and was not able to live alone nor drive anymore, and she had moved to Dubuque, Iowa, to live with the Sisters of Charity. She donated her car to them and submitted to vigorous cancer treatments.
Night before last, I got a message from my youngest brother that she had passed away.
An era in my life has come to an end. He was upset, but I was devastated.
According to the mutual neighbor who had been to see her, she was failing and not improving with the "chemo" and other treatments. She passed away between the end of January and the beginning of February. It was worse that I was just finding out now - almost six months ago!
The only good thing about this is that she is no longer in pain.
Rest in peace, Pat. I will miss you tremendously.
