Thanks again guys. I got my one more day, today. She seemed much more at peace. We were able to talk about a few things and I found the strength to tell her the things I couldn't say yesterday. I am at peace with it now, not happy about, but find peace in knowing I will see her again in a place where she is better off.

I found it very relaxing to just sit and hold her hand, even if we weren't talking. I am going to go back in the morning, and do it all over again. I am hoping through all of this that I can gain just 50% off the strength she had in her life. That would make me an incredibly strong man and hopefully make even more proud.

I am sad, but more at peace with it all now. She got a bad deal in life, in terms of health, so I hope our family, myself especially, made up for that.

So here is the part I am struggling with. My son is away on a 4 week trip in Chile, he is almost 10 and loves his grandma dearly. He last saw her on the 9th, her birthday. He left 2 days later, the day she was moved to the truama ward. He doesn't know.... We facetime and text regularily during his trip, but I don't want to ruin the trip of his young life, plus, what can he do?? I don't want to tell him till he gets home, is this correct thinking?? Be blunt and honest, I really don't know the right thing...
