The results of Natalia's MRI were what we were expecting but hoping not to hear. The tumor is growing once again. We knew we would be bringing home our girl but Dr Banerjee wanted to be sure so she asked Natalia what she wanted most in the world, her answer...Sophia. You all knew we had made the decision not to put her through any more but still hearing the words "a few to several weeks" was extremely hard. Hinds Hospice is coming today to help us care for her during the last of her time on earth. She has been slowly slipping away from us since Christmas and now we will do the best we can to make her comfortable and happy. Edgar is taking off work to care for her and I will be working on and off as I can. Today is a day to recharge the batteries and try to get a hold on emotions that are all over the place. I'm at peace with losing her one minute and crying and thinking about time the next. As Edgar says, we must remember and smile at the miracle she is and try to forget the pain we are experiencing now. Those of you that would like to see her please stop by, she loves to see people. We are going to Monterey next weekend to spend time on the beach and in the ocean...cold I know but it is her favorite place. This weekend is all about Sophia. Her show is going on and it is her moment in the spotlight. It has been about Natalia for the past year and Pia finally gets her own gig. She deserves that and unfortunately she is...she is...The peas and carrot team is losing the peas.
Natalia was meant for more from the beginning and now the Lord is calling her for higher duty. We have to let her go and we will do in the manner in which she lived her life...with grace, strength and beauty.
Much Love to you all,
Roni
