From Jack today:

Ann is to go to Hospice House as soon as a bed becomes available, likely this week. Janet has taken a leave of absence from her teaching. Ann is only drinking Joya milk; she cannot tolerate Boost and the like. She sleeps most of the day. My prayer is that she goes Home peacefully soon, which is her request now.

Many thanks for your continued prayers and concern.

 Ann's message this morning: I have had the nasogastric tube in for a day.  For some reason it seems to sit better in the left side of my nose  than the right.  While it was out, there were a series of tests, measurements, etc. out of concern for what the tube would restrict.  Our team of doctors are very competent and efficient.  My one critical comment is that they talk to each other but not to me!  Yesterday I was anemic and had low sodium levels,  Apparently, cancer will bleed even if not provoked.  It also stops bleeding too! I usually write the  post of the day in the dawn.  It is a beautiful time of day, and I find it very positive for me, even if it is raining or snowing, but  always when it is glowing and anticipating a good day to follow.  Enjoy this Palm Sunday.  Thanks for supporting and following with us.  -- Ann, Jack, Janet and David

 Jack submitted the following, Ann's Eulogy as delivered by Roz Thompson at the funeral: Ann was born in Bristol England, in 1942 the 3 rd child – 1 sister and 2 brothers into a family economically and emotionally challenged. Her father came and went, and eventually her mother was left caring for her three children alone, working at Fry’s chocolate factory.   Ann -being quite bright - was the only one in her primary school to win a scholarship at a grammar school. Her mother could only afford a second-hand school uniform for her, but it clearly identified her as going to the grammar school, leading to some harassment by the neighbourhood children.

Even then church was important to her, and she was nurtured by members of Saint Barnabas Church where she learned about the love and mercy of God. When she was about four years old, she was cared for by some nurses wh

  From Jack today: We need help caring for Ann Passmore when Janet returns to teaching in late August. This would involve about 20 hours a week, at $15/hour, between 10 am and 5 pm Monday to Friday, the exact times to be negotiated.  The location is at 715 Montgomery St, Fredericton, N.B  E3B 2X7.  Ann is continent but frail and requires help moving from the bed to the wheelchair, walker, toilet, commode, etc.  She needs joyful, but gentle, encouragement, support, and plenty of TLC.  Please send a short CV that includes references, past experiences and qualities that relate to the job, to Naomi Phillips at  receptionist@bsbc.nb.ca
