You can always talk to her in your mind, and prayers. I totally believe that our loved ones can fell the love, the hugs, that you send. Prayers for you both are ongoing.

I hope you are rught. My Gdaughter was going to come over here but she said that Ginny took a turn for the worse and she feels like she needs to be with her tomorrow. I guess Ginny is really going down fast from till being able to talk a week ago to not being able to talk now. From what I've been told by her sister is Ginny is so bad now that her sis said she got out of bed twice but she said that isn't happening again. She is too unsteady on her feet. I think this is the end for her. I would like to see her befor she passes but they don't even think she would know I was in the room,, Still I would know but for someone to get me there would mean a 600 mile rd trip. I have never seen Cancer get so aggresive before. She has gone from talking to not even being with you when you are there. This one did that in about 4 days. Alyssa is going there today and will Facetime me so I can see here and talk to here. She probably won't even know I am there. I just have never seen cancer spread so fast. I guess its probably luck for her because she is not suffering. Hospice has her on Morphine another each hour and Oxycodone every 3 hours so she is pretty out of it from that besides the Cancer symptoms. I am pretty sure this is the last hoorah for her. It just is giving me a new perspective on how cancer works on a person. Once it gets to the brain you are pretty much done for. I keep worrying the next call or message is going to be the one informing me of her passing. Well the nurse will be next. Now I don't know what to do I need to change my undies and I don't have any clean all my stuff has disappeared. They were going to get me some new ones today but now I don't know.
Pat, oh man, my heart is breaking for what you are going through. Hearing what you are describing is the exact same thing that Nancy was going through. I am sitting here with tears rolling down my face with the memories and heartfelt sorrow for you and the rollercoaster of emotions you are experiencing. Ginny knows you love her and that you would be there if you could. I think a facetime session is a wonderful idea. We were very fortunate that David, Chris, (her sons) and their wives could be here and help with her care. I don't know what I would have done otherwise. It is wonderful that Ginny has her family with her so she is surrounded by love. And don't forget that we also love you and we're here for you. I also hope you find some clean undies.
Oh Pat, my heart is aching for you and Ginny. You're right, the cancer is really moving fast. It's wonderful that her family is with her now and I think the FaceTime connection is such a great idea. Please know that you are both in my prayers.
Welll I talked to Ginny today. She is pretty out of it. I don't think they expect her to last over a couple of weeks. If I was there I don't think she would know it. This whole thing is getting to be a little too much along with everything wlse. I think she will last long enoungh that I should get over there to at least see her. We sure didn't think this is the way this whole thing would end. Who knows she might pull out of it stranger things have happpened. I'm really not expecting it but you never know. I just wish this whole thing wa over. At least she has our little dog with her.
I guess we've lost her. No one thinks she will ever pull out of this. I don't know what to do. Life sucks I never knew it would end like this. I don't know what to do now. We finally get to this point and the rug is swept out from under our feet. I should be there she wouldn't know I was but I have to get these legs. and make sure they fit tho.
Patrick ... I've been away for a few days without any internet access. Just catching up this morning and I'm sorry to hear the latest about Ginny and you. My heartfelt prayers and thoughts are with you and really hoping you get to be with her soon.
Dear Porchers,
Just received a call from Patrick. Ginny passed away sometime during the night. They 'found' her this morning.
Patrick was very lucid and seemed to be holding up well, considering. He's just stunned by the rapidity of Ginny's deterioration.
I inquired as to his well being and he said he might have gladly gained three pounds. He'll receive his new prosthetics this week and hopes to go to his daughter's place by the weekend. He'll get his own place once everything settles down.
He mentioned that the kids had only one more load to empty his house and put that in storage.
Patrick sends his love to all of his Porcher friends. "Kind of funny how one can become friends without ever meeting them!" (his words)
Rest in Blessed Peace, sweet Ginny!

Thank you Iffy - I know that was difficult to post.
Pat - we are all here sending you love.
Rest well sweet Ginny, you gave life your all !
So sad for you, Pat, losing Ginny and nearly losing yourself in the struggle. Take the time to recover. I couldn't watch directly, but soon can.
Pat, so very sorry you couldn't be with Ginny at her passing.
My heart has a small crack of sadness for you!

Pat, it may be a while before you post here ... but my heart and soul ache for you ... my deepest thoughts and prayers go out to you. What an ordeal these final weeks and days have been for you ... I won't stop praying that you find your way through the coming days to remember and celebrate the love you had for each other and treasure it to overcome the sorrow and grief of her passing.
I'm so sorry, Pat. It will be hard for some time, please try to keep the love you had for each other close. Your memories will always live in your heart. Warmest hugs for you and your family.
{{{{Patrick}}}} I'm so sorry to hear of Ginny's passing. Even though you know it's coming it's still so hard.
