I just spoke with DM and Mom is now on the steady morphine drip. Her pain had increased to an unbearable level and she had a 102° fever they could not kick. She is resting peacefully and breathing regularly. She was able to acknowledge her son today but drifted to sleep quickly.

DM's voice now issues a peace I have not heard since this all began. "My heart hurts... it just hurts too much to think about this," she said.

Mom will remain on the drip until God calls her soul and takes her home. Please help me pray for our friend, she is in a very vulnerable way just now.
