Hospice care

In the best interest for Mimi, she will be under inpatient Hospice care right here at Allegiance Hospital. When/if her comfort is controlled, she may be moved to the Hospice Home in Jackson. Daughter Angie came down from Grand Rapids last night and she stayed with her. Mom had another rough night and finally today, per our request, she was given Dilaudid; a pain reliever similar to Morphine. She received that at 11am and has been sleeping comfortably since. Thank you all for your calls, cards and prayers; please continue to pray for her to be comfortable and we know she is at peace with her belief. Pray for strength for her family as they see this process continue and yet realize that she did/does not want any heroic measures. Thanks again and I will try to keep you updated.

Love, Ruthann's family
