The end is near

Shannon's heart rate is elevated and not responding to drugs. She's running a temperature and her lungs do not sound good.

A nurse let me know she may have a day to a week. 

I don't know how much of her is left. She doesn't respond in any meaningful way, she can barely move her arm. I just wish she didn't have to go with such a struggle. But that's her way, stubborn to the end.

Quiet days

Thanks for all the support everyone. Over the weekend it was very quiet, Shannon has settled into being asleep 95% of the time. She doesn't make eye contact anymore, though she still smiles at some stories I tell her.

I was out sick the last two days, thankfully family was able to watch over in my stead. The only recent change is an increase of pain medication, I think it's just discomfort from laying in bed for so long. They move her around, but having laid in bed for the last two days more than not, I can say you get uncomfortable.

P.S. She still snores. Loudly sometimes.
