Janet was admitted to Brockville General Hospital early Monday morning and was quickly transferred to Kingston General Hospital. She was diagnosed with Acute Leukemia.
Unfortunately, the acute leukemia affected her organs. Her kidneys had stopped producing urine and had completely failed by Wednesday morning. She had a severe infection in her lungs which needed her to be put on life support. She also suffered from pneumonia because of this.
All the life support machines were working at maximum capacity, unfortunately it was not enough to save our dearest Janet.
She passed away peacefully on November 29th, 2006 in the Intensive Care Unit at Kingston General Hospital with her family and friend by her side.
There will be a visitation and funeral service in Markham, most likely on Sat Dec 9. After the funeral, she will be cremated. The service and cremation will happen on the same day so that those coming from out of town will not have to stay over night. Her family needs a rough estimate of how many will be attending, so if you will, please let me know. Also, the service is an unfortunate financial surprise for her family, so I will be collecting donations from anyone who can donate to offer to her family to help relieve them from this distressing event. I’d like the donation to be independent of the service itself, so please don’t wait until then. Money is ugly to talk about at a time like this.
I really can’t think of much to say. It’s all so sudden it’s just craziness. To check in to a hospital Monday and be dead two days later, not knowing beforehand that there was anything wrong would be scary as hell. Frik.
