This post and the comments made me cry. Thank you all for the prayers and well wishes, it means a great deal to me.
Friday my oldest sister, whom is one of my most trusted friends suffered cardiac arrest. She was found not breathing and unresponsive. They weren't sure how long she went without oxygen.
They resuscitated her and did all that they could over the weekend but ultimately her kidneys failed, she developed a fever and wouldn't wake on her own. An EEG showed little brain activity so we were told if she ever did wake, my sister would never be able to talk to us, or move on her own again. She'd be in a total vegetative state. They were going to confirm this via CT this morning and planned to shut off life support after that was accomplished. I wanted badly to see her first.
I rushed out of state in the middle of the night last night to be with her today to say goodbye. Seeing her like that is something that will forever be burned into my mind. Her eyes were so vacant, her hands cold from the cooling blanket. I could tell that she just wasn't with us anymore.
I was able to spend a couple of hours with her, and our family. I am grateful for that. I have been incredibly sick as I battle a couple of autoimmune diseases that have kicked my butt lately, leaving me also battling bronchitis. I have an important appointment with my specialist tomorrow that I can't miss. I am glad I was able to muscle through and get my buns down there to hold her hand and tell her that I love and like her (something we've always said) and ask her to hug our dad for me. And am able to get home tonight to still make it to my appointment so that I can try to get better.
A few minutes ago a CT did confirm no brain activity at all. They are shutting off life support and giving her morphine to ease the transition.
I cannot begin to explain how much my heart hurts. The world is a little darker without such a beautiful and bright person. I have lost one of the only people I could tell literally anything to without judgment, one of my biggest supporters and someone who I could do anything and nothing with.
Sister, you were the best big sister and best friend I could have asked for. I know that I will see you again someday, but missing you and not having you in my life, and in the lives of my boys is something I can't even imagine. Rest In Peace, sis. Love you, and like you- always.
Oh no, I'm not sure what's going on. I don't need to know either, unless Odd feels comfortable enough to share. However, I pray for her continued strength during this time. Obviously life has thrown something else at her, and she's in my thoughts. You're loved here @Odd. If you see this, I hope you know we love you and that you have our support.
Idk if you guys follow her on snap but she's going through tough times! First her health and now the decline of her family members health... I hate seeing bad things happen to great people!
Im so, so sorry odd. That made me cry! If you ever need to talk, dont hesitate to message me anytime.
