OH Sarah~ I was so afraid to read your post. I have been wondering about Madeline and am so sorry that her battle has been so hard. I agree that if it's at all possible, you would value every second of time spent w/her. When my Mother was in her final wks, I just soaked up every word she said and tried to ingrain it into my mind and heart.

Hopefully, you can work something out for a visit.

Please know that I am truly sorry and that I will continue to keep Madeline in my prayers. I wish I could say something really smart and comforting, but I just want you to know that I am thinking of you and your family.

Bless your sister and keep her free from pain, Oh Lord....
