Posted by flying belgian on December 05, 2013 at 23:15:25 from (216.114.227.30):

Monday morning I got a call from Mothers first alert operator that Mother had fallen down in her home. I rushed down there and found her laying flat out on the floor just crying about headache pain. She is 90 years old. Took her by ambulance to er. They took cat scan and found 2 inch blood mass in lower part of brain. She would need at minimum of 3 surgeries which a woman of her age would not survive. And if by some miracle she did survive at best she would be a vegetable. So decision was made with my siblings to keep her comfortable and let nature take it's course. They thought she would last perhaps 1 to 6 days. Hospital has done a wonderful job of keeping her comfortable but it appears we are near the end. I am really going to miss her. I have come to respect her more and more the last 10 years. She was a very wise woman and farming was her whole life. First with Pa and then after he passed 22 years ago she kept interested in the farm the way I was running it. Just this fall she would call me every morning to see what I got done yesterday and what I was going to do today. In the spring I would tell her what crop I was planting on each farm and she would remember that all summer and ask specifics about each one all season long. Her mind just kept getting sharper the older she got but her body just plain wore out. She had a stroke about 15 years ago that left her very hard to get around but that mind was amazing. I love her and will miss her dearly. Thanks for listening.
