Re: Update on Mom, prayers needed...
Josh,
We are walking right behind you, my mother is experiencing the same symptoms as your mom did during her final weeks. Know that your words are constantly with me: about holding hands and reading the bible together. Your mom is now cancer free and holding God's hands. Praying for you and your entire family.
