Some Progress

Short Updates:

• No poo today, but Ahma did urinate a few times.
• She asked for cold drinks (we gave her ginger ale, gatorade, and green bean soup)
• She was in a lot of pain most of the day. 
• Dr. Kathy Foley, George's contact who works at Memorial Sloan Kettering, was able to help advocate on Ahma and our family's behalf to get the Department of Social Services Caseworker and the Visiting Nurse Service Supervising Nurse to pay attention. They are sending a nurse to evaluate her pain today.
• A hospice consult from Hospice Network will come on Friday at 5PM. Bad news is that we won't be able to continue with her current home health aids (i.e. the amount time) if we go with hospice. We will need to choose. We will have to see what the hospice program has to offer. 
• Ahma sat up for about 15 minutes. We sang her favorite hymns and prayed the Lord's Prayer together before she slept.

Please pray for wisdom in comforting/dealing with our family (especially non-believers).

Please pray that we will be able to choose from the best options possible to keep Ahma comfortable.

Please pray that each of us are refined through this fire so that we are a closer image to what God wants us to be.
