It is with deep sadness that I report that my mother lost her long hard battle with MDS last night. Her family was with her. I will mourn her for the rest of my life. This was never an outcome we expected, the doctors never mentioned it. I knew the odds of remission were slim, but I expected to at least take her home. Please pray for my family, we are going to need them. My mother was the heart of it.
