We’re Not Making Any More Appointments Janet Kuypers, 09/04/06 #2 “I never thought that your mom was really sick, it never occurred to me that your mother was dying. I saw her getting more and more sick, but I didn’t think that meant anything... Your dad was taking your mom to the doctor and he wanted someone to go with him, she needed help walking, getting to the office, so my wife went with them. They went to the doctor, and they checked on your mother, and they said, “We’re not making any more appointments.” And... And that’s when it hit me, even the doctors knew she was near the end.” Copyright Janet Kuypers. All rights reserved. No material may be reprinted without express permission.
