Brian again:- Family and friends are keeping up a 24 hour vigil on Lorraine as she slowly fades from this life on Earth and into the next with Jesus in Heaven.

As I write this Lorraine lies motionless in bed with an occasional arm movement and a short vocal noise. She appears not to be suffering from any pain and does not offer any resistance when moved by the nurses.
All close siblings and children have now visited and said their goodbyes.

This may be the second last blog - the last will advise of funeral date and time.

Thank you for continuing to read and share this with friends, it has been a great tool for communicating to such a wide group of people.

God bless you all

Brian and Lorraine Pfeiffer

Brian here again

Lorraine has deteriorated considerably since she dictated these notes.

Hello from Lorraine, but dictated to Brian,

I know some of you deserve a personal response but I will apologise now due to a lack of energy. Life is going on day by day. Weakness gripping more of me, and lack of appetite becoming more of an issue – not forgetting general drowsiness. I am on daily oxygen (that helps a bit) Meanwhile much love and support comes from you and for this we are truly grateful.”

“We are enjoying reading the travel exploits of Simon and Caitlin with Adrian as they follow ‘Lord of the Rings’ sites around New Zealand.”

Brian says:- I am sitting in hospital beside Lorraine as I write this note. I was with her last night - she  was very restless and couldn't sleep. The pain drugs she on did not appear to be working. This morning she was injected with some other drug, which had almost immediate results - she appears to be pain-free as she is very calm and appears to be sleeping.

I will try and keep updating this Blog to keep you informed. I have turned off her mobile phone, so if you need to make contact I will be available on Phone 0428 060 379
