The kids are on the way

As many of you had figured out by my posting last night, Mary's condition is getting progressively worse.  And, it is to the point that we have flipped from trying to cure her to providing palliative care to make her comfortable.

The doctor advised that the family gather so as I write this, Lara, Tim and Daniel plus the grand girls are on the way to Stanford.  And my offspring, Chris with his family and Erika from New York are also on the way. Everyone will be her by midnight.

Also, the doctor said, "Her systems are shutting down."  I have not gotten any medical professional to translate that to time because they are all trained to say, "You need to talk to her Oncologist and we will brief him before he sees you."  That should be some "hospital time" today.
