All,
I'm sending this to just a few people in my circle of Wild Connections, ICA and neighbors. All are cherished, but my energy is limited. I would appreciate it if you shared this more widely.
I've been in the UCHealth Anschutz hospital for several days. I have Acute Myloid Leukemia, common in older people. There are treatments, but as a family, given my age, I will let the end of life progress.
I will be moving to an advanced medical facility that can provide 24/7 care.
I expect a couple of months to close out my apartment, continue Vickie's probate and get my own affairs in order. During that time I am hoping to have you and others come for brief visits. I'll let you know when.
Right now cards, emails or text messages are welcome, but please *No* phone calls.
Thank you, grace and peace,
Jean ............................................... Jean C Smith jeancsmithco@gmail.com <mailto:jeancsmithco@gmail.com> 719-339-6739 Jean Smith c/o Val Wainwright 604 So Laredo Cir Aurora CO 80017
