Donations

We prefer that instead of flowers, we would like people to make a donation in memory of my Mother to one of the many causes she supported with all her heart. These are just a few of the many causes my mom supported, so please do not feel obligated only to donate to the ones I post here.

My Mom was a member of the IBM bike team for the BP MS150

She Won

My Mom is a fighter. She knows what she wants and goes for it. Tonight she wanted to be with her maker. My Mom passed away this evening. She left this world peacefully and surrounded by her family. These past three weeks have been the hardest weeks of our lives. Remember the good times my Mom brought to everyone around her and find comfort knowing that she is now in a better place. We will post information about final arrangements very soon. Thanks for loving my Mom.

Hardest Days

The past few days have been the hardest days of our lives. The neurologist informed us that my Mom will not be coming back to us. His reccomendation was to take her off life support and let her be with God. We struggled with this for days. We asked for more tests and a second opinion, but the answer remained unchanged. Last night my Mom was taken off life support. She is breathing peacefully on her own and is comfortable. We welcome friends to come and visit her. Call my Dad at 281-216-3639 to arrange a time to come and visit. I will continue posting information about my Mom on this site.

Day 19

My Mom had a rough day today. The doctors have kept her on medication to keep her blood pressure up, and her heart rate has been high all day long. Due to her low blood pressure they were not able to perform dialysis today. She is still running a temperature of around 101. She needs everyone's prayers right now.

Day 18

The surgery went well tonight. The surgeon was able to clear out the fluid that had built up, and my Mom tolerated the operation nicely. Our family would like to say thank you to everyone for your kind words and much needed prayers, please keep them coming.
