I really don't know how to even start this. After the cat scan this morning (9 hours ago) the neurosurgeon came to see me. I don't know that any sentence that begins with "I'm afraid I have the worst news possible" can be good.
Suffice it to say that my beautiful, lovely wife of 30 years is lying in hospital on a respirator as the organ transplant specialists determine what they can use. While she has maybe 24 hours to "live", the beautiful soul that I and many others knew and loved has essentially passed on. I pray that Jesus appreciates what a gem he has now.
The one consolation I have is that it appears that the initial rupture of the aneurysm was catastrophic in and of itself. The gyrations of the past 24 hours were necessary but were incapable of leading to recovery. As we learned this at 8 am this morning, news reached most of our friends and close to 100 people were able to come to say goodbye to Sue. (She never regained consciousness, right from the initial rupture.)
This. hurts. so. bad.
Please pray for Sue and hopefully those who can benefit from the organs she can donate.
Oh God, please help.
