My leukemia's back.

Good morning, Team...um, did I forget to say that earlier?

Sniff, sniff yes

Well, there! I said it, and I ain't taking it back!

good to hear he is ready. But sorry for the pain for those still on this earth.

Thank you, AK!

Thankfully he is in almost no pain... He says his back hurts if he lays or sits for too long so he just changes position every couple of hours.

TA, Your Grampy Billy's homecoming will be sweet to him, and a heart ache to you. Any plattitude I can utter would be just that to you: a plattitude.

So, I'll give you this:

Romans 8:38–39 (ESV)
38 For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, 39 nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Thank you, LG!

Actually, this verse has a lot to do with how I was feeling last night.. but yes Nothing can separate us from God!

We got him drink a little bit of water today and some ice cream...

I went and sat with him last night for a bit and he wouldn't talk other than saying swear words so mom my baby brother in and grandpaB saw him, and words can't describe the smile on his face. But he told LBro that this was his last goodbye. I held my tears back but it was a very precious moment.

He is still here but his breathing is getting weaker.

Moms off again to go see him.

It isn't an easy vigil, I know. When you're sitting there, you don't know what to pray for anymore. Do you pray for a miracle or do you pray that someone you love takes that last breath? It is a precious moment, just as you said - that gift to see someone so incredibly special take that last Earthly breath and then breathe the first breath of Heaven. One thing I think all the time when I think of Linda is a line from a movie, believe it or not, where the mother of the young woman who just passed away says, "I think of how lucky I am....I was there when that wonderful creature drifted into my life, and I was there when she drifted out." Keep us updated as you can, and know that we are there beside you every step!
