Gail, I am so sorry about Ruth. I hope you find comfort in the fact that she is pain free and healthy again. She isn't alone in her journey as I'm sure that she is busy catching up with your dad and Rick. You were a wonderful daughter to her, taking her to the doctor and being her advocate, visiting her and making sure that she was well cared for never needing anything. I hope you find peace knowing you did the best that any child could do for a parent. Find happiness and joy in the memories you shared.
God speed Ruth, I was blessed to have known you.
