My sister sent me this today!
When my mom was passing away in the hospital this year, we had two sleepless weeks where we stayed at the hospital, occasionally taking turns to run home and nap and shower, but that was basically it. There was a family of about six with a few friends that largely did the same for their 26 year old daughter/sister/friend who was in a coma with liver disease. She didn’t make it either. I still think about them a lot and wonder how they are doing. My mom dying in the hospital at 72 was bad enough…I can’t imagine what it was like for them. I didn’t know her story and what her drinking was like…crap…there’s a good chance it was less than or equal to mine…but I could easily see her thinking that she had time left to party. This disease is cunning.baffling.powerful…for sure.
