THE END IS NEAR

To me, Rhonda seems to be slipping away more quickly than before.  She does not seem to be in pain.  She does not really acknowledge the presence of all the family and friends around her.  Mickey said that she feels Rhonda's spirit is making her way to her beloved Great Dane, Emmitt.  Very soon, she will be romping verdant grounds with Emmitt leading the way.  We will miss Rhonda so deeply yet draw comfort from the knowledge that she will be free from the pain of her body.
