On October 21st, 2012, our father, William Harrer, lost his battle with lymphoma. Through the last years of his life, we (his five kids) blogged about what was happening. It tells a story of how one family dealt with the end of their father's life. We thought if it can help a family with similar struggles, he would very much want that, and so we are making our blog public. You can read Dad's obit on the page "Dad's Life in a Nutshell" and see for yourself what an amazing life he had.

Aunt Lee
Saw Aunt Lee last night. She is in Memorial. The daughters were there. If you talk to Aunt Lee Sandy asked that we no mention this, but from what Sandy said, Aunt Lee has thin blood, leaky heart valves, coronary blockage, and kidney disease. They gave her a transfusion last night. We played one game of backgammon (she won) and she looked weak, but her spirits were good. Do not know how long they plan to keep her in the hospital.

I stopped by and saw Aunt Lee this morning (8/30) and she is looking fragile. Her spirits are good and she talked about beating John last night in backgammon. She also talked about the Harrer's are her favorite family.
ReplyDeleteI did overhear that they were planning on doing a thorocentisis on her and after I was there for awhile they took her for a chest x-ray. Both Nancy and Sandy were there providing support and comfort.
