Priscilla
Dear Dr. Miller,
Thank you so much for helping Priscilla and me in our time of crisis! When I left my emergency message, I never expected such a quick response! I never expected that you would be willing to cancel a surgery in order to help Prissy in her crisis and me in my desperate need for advice as to what to do! You are truly amazing to me for all that!
When you arrived at my home, you did not try to force me to make a decision. You explained the options and gave me time to think it over with Prissy! Thank you for that!
I could not “take in” all you were telling me initially, because of my grief. I think you understood that.Of course, I still wanted to find some “miracle” to keep her alive. When you explained what her death would be like if I waited even 2 days, that broke through the grief and it was totally clear to me the decision I had to make. I would be keeping her alive because of my own selfishness, which I know, but you description of her future death clarified that for me. Thank you!
You also explained to me that she was not rejecting me. That really helped. Thank you! Thank you for everything you did for Prissy and me that day of her death! I could not have made such a difficult and painful decision without your kind and very competent help!
I also thank you for your card of condolence and affirmation of my decision. That meant so much to me. Again I find you truly amazing!
