Four friends of the family visited Mom to honor, pray, and play for her. Words cannot describe the compassion and power conveyed by this Native American drumming custom. Ultimately, Mom was made Little Sister to the Drum and given a blanket meant to hold and warm her...as a friend would.
Mom is increasingly amused by the the ridiculous parade of minor Indignities that precede Death. Andrew, a deep source of love and security, gives her strength to laugh.
Mom is immobilized from the neck down apart for some movement in her right arm. It is increasingly difficult for her to swallow and talk.
Thanks to all who continue to visit: Mom loves it. We offer a very special thanks to Suzanne, Kay's kind niece, who flew in from Chicago.
Please arrange visits with Andrew. The period from 11-12 noon daily is reserved for family visitors.

Please give Kay my love. I continue to think about her and keep her (and all of you) in my prayers. Love, Ruth Bradfield
