Via Email from Kenneth Mullinax:
Mom visited with Mae 30 minutes late yesterday.
UAB Medical spoke with Beth Gaddy and they arranged a humanitarian visit for Mom and Buddy each day at 5:30pmcst with no stipulations attached.
We are still filing before the newly appointed Judge on Monday in LaGrange, Ga. but until then, we didn't want pride or anything to stand in the way of Mom and her brother visiting their sister. It is good for Mom's condition (she is still in UAB Hospital) and it is great for Mae too.
MAES CONDITION
(1) Mom spoke to the charge nurse and Mae is listed as stable....that is fabulous for a women who was in hospice.
(2) Mae has an IV in her arm and is being hydrated.
(3) Mae has a temporary nasal feeding tube.
(4) The charge nurse said Mae's heart is doing well.
(5) Mae is cognizant.
(6) Mae recognized Mom and spoke in sentences.
(7) Mae is still speaking softly because her throat is still very sore from dehydration but she is speaking.
(8) She is in the critical care unit but stable.
When I visited my Mom at the hospital early this morning she (Lonnie Ruth McLeod Mullinax-Mae's sister) told me
"I visited with sister Mae last evening and she looks so much better now. Mae opened her eyes and when she saw me said 'where you been Lonnie?' I asked her how she felt and she whispered 'I can't buck dance.' I stayed with her for 30 minutes and when I got ready to leave, she grabbed my hand and said: 'Bring me a brown sack and take me home.' That was a saying of Momma's that means pack up my stuff. I am so thankful to the Lord that sister is doing so well now."
Praise Christ!
Thanks to Terri's friends for helping us bring this to the attention of the authorities and the media.
Although Terri's death was very tragic, she lives-through ALL of you and her spirit has brought my Aunt from hell to the serenity of a caring, competent hospital.

(Can you sense my big grin now?)
*bump*
So glad the two of them are able to visit, to show their love for one another, and to share praise and thanks to God in heaven.
ROTFL! That has me grinning from ear to ear. Prayers for a full recovery and long, healthy life.
AMEN!!!
I lost it laughing to!!!
PRAISE GOD! WHAT GREAT NEWS!!
Great!!!
There shall be no shame for all the efforts saving this woman from evil. God lives on through each soul, sending angels to defend the welfare of His children.
Your hard work and guidance in handling this challenge is greatly appreciated! It's wonderful that an agreement was established and the siblings are permitted to visit. It must surely relieve their stress levels and concerns. PRAISE THE LORD!
We need to keep watch...the evil forces are still active and I'm sure there will be more battles ahead.
AMEN and TO GOD BE THE GLORY
Hopefully someone else heard her talk (place sarcasm tag here)
Maybe the Brown Bag will be comming soon!
Has MAE's SISTER been in to visit with Mae?
Am I on a cloud?
Is this for real?
I am so happy for MAE and Ruth........just JOYOUS!
May God Bless Mae and Ruth, and bless the medical personnel who tend to their common (shared) aorta problem! Two sisters, patients in the same hospital, now can hold hands and speak with one another.
I do not know what made beth change her mind....BUT THANK GOD she did!
Thank you, THANK YOU for this information.
Do you know where Pat, Beth's mother, Mae's dtr., fits into this sick case of first denying medical care and assigning a ward to death a la mode hospice?
Praise the Lord!

WAHOO!
Been out in the forest and sun, listening to the frogs who "woke up" this week...had to 'breath my soul back into me" (Millay)
This is SUPER - and the sister can visit - etc...sounds like Kirby's one of the rare good lawyers and knows his stuff!
Would love to've been a fly on the wall when Kirby told Boyd where the bear does his doody in the buckwheat!
maybe something like - "How could you give the granddaughter POA on medical and not consider the statements from the brother and sister that would shed suspicion on the motives of the granddaughter?"
Anyway, it looks like Mae is safe now. If Mae is conscience, she could immediately change her POA on both financial and medical...
Oh my goodness!! I have been gone several days, and Gramma Mae is TALKING!!! Wow thanks for this super post!!! Terri will live on in MANY people I am quite certain!!
