God is always working to make His children aware of a dream
that remains alive beneath the rubble of every shattered dream,

a new dream that
when realized will release a new song, sung with tears,

till God wipes them away
and we sing with nothing but joy in our hearts

This morning we learned that the EEG done yesterday showed very little brain activity. Given the CAT Scan that showed diffuse brain damage, the EEG, Kim's minimal responsiveness, and her other health conditions, Bob and Evelyn made the most difficult decision to stop all interventions and focus on Kim's comfort. She came home around 2:30 today and is receiving Hospice care in her home. Kim looks comfortable. All of those bothersome tubes are out of her body--except for her dialysis catheter, which will only be used to give pain medication.
She's back in her OWN room, surrounded by her OWN family, her 2 best friends, and--of course--Millie, her beloved dog.
