9/19/2006

My cousin passed away today. She died from lung cancer at the age of 64. The hospital staff had decided to honor her wishes (after all) to not keep her alive on a respirator, so after her brother arrived and he was able to see her, they removed the respirator. She passed away 30 minutes later.

We were not especially close the last 25 years, but she was family and always around when I was growing up.

I hope she is at peace.
