 “What to expect next on my decline.“

We found a recent letter from my mother-in-law’s doctor. My mother-in-law wrote the above in its margins. 

The letter listed her conditions… 

Her emphysema was evolving. Part of her lung had collapsed. Her breathing was getting worse. (She had COPD for years and was on oxygen) 

She had a new slow growing cancer. 

The fluid around her heart was going down. The doctor emphasized that this was good news. 

She had early stage liver cirrhosis.
