To the family of Mary Hitt. I regret that I did not know Mary. But I have been following the posts about her, and I was deeply saddened today to learn that she did not recover. I pray not only for the repose of her soul, which I am sure has winged its way to our Lord, but also for you, who have the heavier burden. Your love for Mary, the light of your lives, now brings you terrible pain. I pray to our Lord to lift that pain, so that your love can return to what He meant it to be, a source of joy to you once more. God bless you, and keep Mary safe in His arms. --Janice Drew in New York

To the Hitt family, I am truly sorry for your loss. It touches each of us deeply when one of our fellow surgery sisters is called home. Know that you are in our prayers and Mary is in our hearts. God Bless you all.

Oh my God this is so sad. Mary tried so very, very hard to get better. When I visited with her and her Dad she was in pain but still got up to stroll with us and laughed at our corney jokes. She was so excited to be on the road to her new life. Her Dad was so nice and concerned. I stayed about 1 1/2 hours talking, answering questions and just plain visiting. What a tremendously special family. I mourn our loss of her with all my heart. I hope all our good wishes and prayers will try to help Mr. & Mrs. Hitt recover from this horrible tragedy. I will miss your sense of humor Miss Mary Elizabeth. The Sadest Angel

Whenever we read of someone's passing, everyone here is very upset. As we await our surgeries, we all have the same fear -- what if we are one of the casualties. It could have been any of us -- even though we are attempting to improve our health and our lives, one never knows when it is our turn to go. I think though that when we are ready for this surgery, we are at the end of our ropes -- and so we take the chance. This does not lessen the pain of those left behind -- she was not supposed to be one of the casualties. It's not fair. I'm so sorry for Mary's family. I'm sure you know that she wanted to make her and your lives better and wanted what we all want -- to be healthy and happy. Now she'll watch over you all from heaven and remain with you in your hearts. I will keep you all in my prayers.

I just want to thank everyone who has emailed me about Mary's passing. I helps so much. I know her family will be overwhelmed with how many lives she has touched. The following was sent to me by a dear friend, and it has never been more needed than now. I hope you find hope and wisdom in this prayer. This was written by an 83-year-old woman to her friend. Dear, I'm reading more and dusting less. I'm sitting in the yard and admiring the view without fussing about the weeds in the garden. I'm spending more time with my family and friends and less time working. Whenever possible, life should be a pattern of experiences to savor, not to endure. I'm trying to recognize these moments now and cherish them. I'm not "saving" anything; we use our good china and crystal for every special event such as losing a pound, getting the sink unstopped, or the first Amaryllis blossom. I wear my good blazer to the market. My theory is if I look prosperous, I can shell out $28.49 for one small bag of groceries. I'm not saving my good perfume for special parties, but wearing it for clerks in the hardware store and tellers at the bank. "Someday" and "one of these days" are losing their grip on my vocabulary. If it's worth seeing or hearing or doing, I want to see and hear and do it now. I'm not sure what others would've done had they known they wouldn't be here for the tomorrow that we all take for granted. I think they would have called family members and a few close friends. They might have called a few former friends to apologize and mend fences for past squabbles. I like to think they would have gone out for a Chinese dinner or for whatever their favorite food was. I'm guessing; I'll never know. It's those little things left undone that would make me angry if I knew my hours were limited. Angry because I hadn't written certain letters that I intended to write one of these days. Angry and sorry that I didn't tell my husband and parents often enough how much I truly love them. I'm trying very hard not to put off, hold back, or save anything that would add laughter and luster to our lives. And every morning when I open my eyes, tell myself that it is special. Every day, every minute, every breath truly is a gift from God.
