My mom passed on Monday morning surrounded by her family. I had received a call Sat. at 4am that she was back in the hospital. We managed to get on a standby flight and spent Sat. and Sunday with her while she was still fully aware. She wanted nothing but to go home. At first, it didn't seem that it would be possible, since it was a sunday and there was difficulty getting the pain meds, but the hospice nurse moved heaven and earth and made it happen. It was was she wanted and she is now with my Dad and at peace. I will be home on Friday.
