Homecoming

After a meeting with the palliative care team at UC, we have made the
decision to bring Karyn home where she belongs. This is, after all,
the goal we have had from the very beginning---to get her home and to
have her here with us. As I type this she is most-likely in an
ambulance for what is probably her final trip across the Golden Gate
Bridge, through southern Marin and eventually into our beloved home
in Fairfax. I can't express in words how happy this decision has made
us---there was something about being in such a cold and sterile place
never felt right.

We do not know what kind of timeline we are on right now, but we are
told it will not be all that long. As you can all imagine, this is a
very difficult time for us all and we know you are all sharing in
this sadness with us. She is a beautiful human being, an amazing
mother, a real woman..... and a true angel among us.

You can all rest easy tonight knowing that, for the first time in
nearly six months, she will be sleeping in her own bed with me right
there alongside her and her children and close family all under the
same roof. And when they carry her in through the front door this
afternoon, one thing will be for certain.... she will know that she
finally made it home.
