There is perhaps no experience so profound as being involved in another human's final moments in this life.
And nothing so surreal as sitting with someone in #hospice while reading news about #war in #Iran and #Gaza, and humanitarian crises of #starvation, #violence, and pilferage perpetuated by the #rich and those in #power.
#Humanity is unspeakably beautiful and ineffably cruel.
The #FinalMission was accomplished. Well done, bro. Well done, sis. You moved heaven and earth to make it happen.
She's still with us, and every day of #life from here is a special extra #blessing beyond all the gifts she's already given us throughout our lives.
We lost a great one today. 105th birthday was earlier this month.
#PublicSchool #teacher for decades. Artist. Learner of languages.
#GirlGeek before it was cool. Her first #tech was a Compaq luggable followed by an IBM PS/2. Was still active on her computer at 100 years old.
Mother. Grandmother. And 39 days ago, great grandmother.
Fitting for a lifelong #educator, her final act in #hospice was to help train a nurse on ultrasound-visualized IV placement.
We will miss you. Love always. #Peace
