Prayers and hugs for Max's other grandmother

Post by Very Duke Blue » January 8th, 2014, 6:39 pm

Our sweet Anne, had a massive stroke today. The doctor said it's just a matter of hours. She is comfortable. Anne's quality of life went down hill rapidly after her fall last year. Most of the time in the last 4 months, it was rare for her to recognize anyone. Anne has had a very wonderful life. Bless her and the Craft family. :YMPRAY: :YMPRAY: :YMPRAY: :YMPRAY: :YMPRAY: :ymhug: :ymhug: :ymhug: :ymhug: :ymhug:

Thanks to all of you. I haven't heard anything today. I assume things have not changed. :YMPRAY:

Thanks Ima. Anne is stable. No change today. The nursing home she where she is, is wonderful. They are full, with 6 patients. I have never seen a long care facility like it. That is a blessing.

Anne is getting morphine shots to make her more comfortable, as her breathing is now labored. The family is with her. They are prepared. Like Dawn said, they lost Anne awhile back. We all have missed her. Anne was a joy to know and love. :ymhug:

Anne will most defiantly be with our Lord. As Bud told Dawn last night: When St. Peter meets Anne, he will say, "Welcome, you are a very pretty lady. Anne's response will be, "I can't help it". Anne always said this when anyone said she looked nice, etc. She loved to laugh. Then she would say, " Do I know you? What is you name" Did I teach you in the eight grade? " She taught school for over 30 years. Her students loved her. When we were at BB, football, baseball games, at all levels, people would come up and speak to her. They were taught by Mrs. Anne. We do miss her. I am so thankful, our Max had Anne in his life. I love the Craft family. :ymhug:

I read somewhere that when you visit a loved one at a time like this, you should wear a wonderful fragrance and lean in very near because that is the last and lingering sense they have and can more easily detect your presence. If you have a "signature" fragrance, something you have worn for a long time, that's even better since it can serve to distinguish you from others.

Sending love,caring, and gratitude for the life of someone who made so many of you joyful. Ima

Thank you, Ima. I passed this on to Dawn. She said "thank you so much" We are blessed to have the Craft family in our lives. They have have told us they feel the same way. Thank you, all of our CTN family, for being here for us. :ymhug:

Anne sounds like a lovely person. I'm sending prayers of comfort for her and for her family.
