For those who know Ann and might come here for information....

Ann made it through the night. A couple of her grandchildren got there at midnight and what a blessing for them to be able to see and talk to their beloved grandma.

Ann has perked up and seems to be doing better than she was yesterday afternoon. I guess this will be a little bit of a roller coaster.

My mom said she a really good heart to heart with Ann this morning. I am SO unbelievably thankful that they have this time together!! I can't even begin to explain how much joy it brings me in such a sad situation.

Ever since Beckett has died, I have thought about who I love that I could ask to hold him and send me a sign that everything was okay. But, who the heck would I ask without being morbid or sounding like a lunatic? I mean...how do you ask someone...if you get there before I do can you do me a favor? The only way that was happening was in my mind.

When I knew that I would probably not be able to see Ann and tell her how I felt about her, I decided to write her a letter. I tried to keep it brief and breezy. At the end, I asked her for one more request from her godchild...I knew she would understand...I asked her to hold my little boy once she got all settled in Heaven. My mom told me today that she said she would surely do that for me. Very powerful and emotional for me. I love Ann so much, I knew she'd say yes.
