Praying and Thinking about the severe mercies that you live. The PT who saw Mark, saw you, and gave the sane word amidst all the specialists who didn’t know.
Id like your address so I can send you something. What do you need?
Love,
Petra

The doctors would come in, and sometimes it would be like the right hand did not know what the left hand was doing. Fortunately there was Dr. Howard, who was Matt’s hospitalist, and was supposed to know what everyone was doing. I also know this from being a hospital social worker. Sometimes the lower person on the totem pole is the wisest–of course as they are supporting the others. Let’s give PT a round of applause. You are Mark’s doula. It is exhausting, and there definitely are times when you just want somebody else to take charge. I remember you talking about wanting to hit the pause button and that was early on. Mark is lucky to have such a tenacious doula. 💕

We knew Mark was really sick and then getting radiated and then not eating and not communicating well at all, but this? Oof. Somehow this was the worst, from my far-far-away perspective. I don’t know how you’re coping — how you have the strength to get out of bed, to stand up, and then shower love all over this dreadful situation. Much peace and continued strength to you, lovely. sbl
