I agree you need to follow your heart! if something (someone) is telling you to go now you need to listen to it!!!

I'm glad you're going, Sarah. So sorry for the circumstances but you'll not regret making this trip.

I can't even type this without crying.....just so happy you've got this chance to talk to her and say things that are in your heart. I never got that chance with DH and my sister didn't know who was there (I don't think) but I spoke to her as though she did.

You're all in my prayers, Sarah.

Sarah,

Please know that we are all there with you in our thoughts while you are taking the trip to see your sister. I also hope that seeing little Mddie will lift her spirits. I can only imagine how difficult this must be for you and your family. Be strong and take care of yourself too.

Prayers for a safe trip and lots of love during your visit Sarah. Let Hospice talk to you and the family. They know how this all happens and what to expect. They are wonderful people.

I would have been lost without hospice. I cannot say enough about them....they saved my sanity.
