I thought I was ready. However, I guess none of us really are. Brad, who’s a paramedic, said the cardiologist must have “balls of steel” to put someone as fragile as Mom on the table. I wonder if the doctor is silently giving her a graceful, non-suffering way to depart this earthly plane. Not to say that he won’t do his very best. I didn’t mean that at all. But her biggest fear in life is winding up in a nursing home; and she wouldn’t ever consider living with one of her kids. I made that abundantly clear to him when we spoke at length last night. At this point and time, everything is in the hands of the surgeon, Mom and God. I guess between them they know what’s best for her and I’ll just have to trust  them.
