Update

This week has been very overwhelming for the Ours family...

Dan, Sara, Howard, Pat, Gizmo, Amy
Kaelee, Jeff, Isaac, Krista
EASTER '09


Sunday evening Sara and Amy arrived to New Mexico from CA and jumped right in to all the responsibilities of caring for their mom.

On tuesday they made the difficult decision to no longer try and fight the cancer with chemo but instead put Pat on hospice so she would be made comfortable, in her own home.

On Wednesday Jeff arrived from Colorado, along with his wife Krista and kids Isaac and Kaelee. Dan, Sara's husband also arrived that night.


And last night (thursday) the hospice nurse told the family that Pat probably had a week left to live.

Things are going fast. This family is hurting as their mother/wife is slipping away.

Please pray that they will find comfort in this difficult time.
