Brief Update on Bonnie and Family

Hello,

This will be brief, as I am off to bed. 

We got word yesterday from the Hospice RN that Mom is in a coma, and has 24-48 hours.  My grandparents, Rod and Marilyn McLennan arrived safely from North Carolina yesterday, and friends from Iowa, Mike and Vicki Brooks as well.  My brother, Stephen and sister, Hannah, and Dad, along with dear friend, Debbie, are all staying at the house, keeping vigil.

We had a wonderful time last night as a family (with great friends too) enjoying dinner, praying and worshiping by Mom's bedside with Rev. Matthew Pechanio leading a short prayer service.

It was a beautiful time and I know Mom would be so pleased and contented with all this love and worship to God.  That was her heart.

This all feels too soon, I know I am not ready.  A lot of fear, anxiety, doubt, and question has gotten stirred up in my soul the past few days.  I am just asking Jesus to hold me fast, that is really all I can do.

  Thank you,
 Bethany
