Mason Hester Graham - Health Updates

09/30/2024

My heart is filled with so much gratitude this morning. Yesterday we had the opportunity to come together and celebrate Mom’s remarkable life and the beautiful person she was. So many friends from far and wide took the time to gift us with their presence and pay their respects, and we have so much love for each and every one of them.

To those in attendance - from the bottom of our hearts, thank you. I have a feeling Mason is smiling and gleaming with pride.

My heart, my soul, my hero - my beautiful mom. Her extraordinary spirit is now free at last. And she, in spite of it all, embodied unconditional love until the very end. I am so unsure how to carry on in a world without her presence, but I know she will remain my guiding light - from whatever realm she now resides.

There are so many words I want to say, but for now - rest well, Mom. I love you to the moon, to the stars, to all the galaxies and back. Until we meet again. 🌙

Hi everyone, I am sorry it’s been a while since the last update on Mason. It has been an eventful past few weeks.

We are currently sitting next to Mom as she’s in bed trying to rest. After having a few more seizures and fighting off an infection, more issues have followed suit. Her body has grown very weak and tired.

Up until now, we have been able to measure the days as “good” or “bad.” Now, we have progressed to evaluating her condition by the hour. Our focus regarding her care has shifted to keeping her comfortable and being present in these pivotal moments.

Words fail to portray just how loved she is, but we are making sure to give it our very best shot. If there is anything you would like her to hear, please let us know. We are honored to relay the message.

Thank you all 💜
