Heart of a lion

Cicily had a sleepier day today than yesterday.  She slept in until 10 am and then on and off again until noon.  While we were snuggling in our chair she made concerted efforts to sign.  As she didn't have the energy required to make a complete sign, I would tell her what her sisters were up to, get Lucy for a belly scratch or get books to read (as those are the most likely sign candidates).
Her breathing is still achingly slow, but apparently with the brave heart she has, 4-5 breaths a minute is all she needs.

Our hearts and prayers are with you all during this time. I can completely understand why she wants to stay with such a great family around her. The spirit in your home is familiar to her, and will be again when you are reunited. Thank heavens for the temple and eternal families.
