Hi Fred. Yes, I got an email late Sunday that Mae had died, God rest her soul. I imagine that her ordeal was very hard on her and may have hastened her death. But still, she died under good care, with food & water in her belly and family at her side. At God's appointed hour. I sent a peace lily to the funeral home for her visitation earlier this evening.
I cannot believe some of the remarks by idiots and sadistic bastards in this thread! Hey you godless cretins... I've got a news flash for you: WE ARE ALL TERMINAL. Maybe later I'll go plug my neighbor full of lead. Then I'll just calmly explain, "Well, he was absolutely, positively, going to die some day. I just decided to pick today for him."
Thanks for the reply Sally, believe me, I understand your anger.I'm happy too, that Miss Mae passed away with her family around her in a hospital where she was being cared for and wasn't starved and dehydrated to death in a hospice, where she was refused even eye drops for glaucoma, which is very painful. Ken obviously didn't want to distress her by telling her what happened, proving once more what a decent human being he is.
We'll never know how much longer she might have lived if her granddaughter hadn't arranged for Miss Mae to 'go to Jesus' and she wasn't sedated with doses of morphine for the journey - a pox on Gaddy and the sadistic bastards on this thread.
Nice to know you sent a flower. I'll send a prayer.
Sally...you couldn't be more right. Kudos. We ARE all terminal.
