I have a few hours to a couple of days to live. In 24 hours, the infection has spread all through me and is destroying muscle and everything else.
I had imagined many different endings…but not necrotizing fasciitis. Figures it would be dramatic.
I’d love to hear your parting thoughts. If you don’t want to leave a comment on a public forum, my email is wendysuewyatt@gmail.com I probably won’t be able to respond, though.
See you on the other side!
Wendy The Wanderer 
There’s too much to say to put it all in order. I wish you all the best on your journey.
Dear Wendy, my true friend,
I hope that that they will keep you out of further pain. I love you with all my heart and if you are still alive, please receive my great big hug, I am missing you already. Sending you all my prayers. Hope to see you on the other side with a beautiful smile on your face.
With all my love,
Carol
May your transition be painless. Thank you for sharing your beautiful pictures on your travels and after you became too sick to travel. I am so happy to know that Olive will be loved by Kent and you have made arrangements for her. I shall pray for you and also for Heather and her family.

May God watch over you and hold you near.
Wendy, Have followed you for so long, my MG sister. My prayers are with you. Praying for peace and for comfort, that you may feel our Lord’s arms around you and the angels surrounding you during the time.
I do hope your daughter publishes your journal for awareness of the medical bias and inequality in our country and the cause of your long suffering.
Much love and respect.
Wendy, I have been following your blog since the womenhikers group days, when you were helping your teen-aged daughter on the AT, I think. I’ve loved learning about your farm in Vermont and learned much about life from your insights. Thank you for sharing your adventures online. I’m sad to think that you may be gone soon. Your courage to keep moving forward has been an inspiration to many of us…and I bet there are a lot of followers that, like me, have silently been following you these many years. I hope that whatever follows this existence for you is pain-free and peaceful. You will be missed by many. This blog will be something that your grandsons will have to learn about you…and that’s a gift. – Katy
Let us hope and pray you are amongst the 20 – 45 % of cases that respond well to IV antibiotic/antifungal treatment and survive and do well. That will be what I hope and pray for you, Wendy.

Dearest Wendy, to follow your life through your blogs has been a humbling journey. You have been so courageous in the face of so many trials. I have prayed for you for years and I pray for you now.
Do go gentle into that good night, dear Wendy. I will miss you. God bless you.
Wendy–I have followed you for a long time and I will miss you and your writing–I wish you peace and pray you will transition easily…you will be missed by so many.
Thank you. From the bottom of my heart, I thank you for all the years that you have shared your incredible life journey with me. I am so sorry that things have been so hard. You have been much admired and loved from afar. I will miss you terribly and think of you often.
Wendy,
I don’t even know what to say. Thank you for keeping all of us updated. May God grant you the peace you deserve. Even though we never met face to face, I consider you a friend and will see you someday
Bless you, Wendy. You are the strongest person I have seen and you have taught us all so much about grace and courage. When I think of all that you have accomplished even with such a sick body. I am in awe.You are a clever and wonderful writer with a wicked sense of humor. You are a natural teacher and an eternal student. You never stopped learning. I am so sorry that you have had to endure so many years of incompetent and indifferent medical treatment. Know that you are loved.
Oh, Wendy I hope you are not in pain. You are a very special person. I have followed you since the Peace and Carrots Farm. I will see you on the other side. Love Anita
Dear Wendy:
As a fellow Vermonter, have followed your journey from when you lived in Vermont. I wish you a pain free transition to the other side, where God and Zeke will greet you. Prayers and love.
Wendy:
I have followed your blogs for 17 years, and even had the great pleasure to meet you and Heather years ago in Vermont. Thank you for sharing so much of your life with all of your readers.
Sending prayers and love to you and Heather!

I’ve been following your journey since way back in the Peace and Carrots days. I’m going to miss you. Your blogs and stories have been a constant part of my internet life.
I hope you are soon no longer in pain. I wish your family all the best.
I really don’t know what else to say.
I will truly miss you.
Wendy, continued prayers sent to you. I regret that I never had a chance to meet you in person. I respect and admire you. It looks like you will pass before me so I will look you up on the other side. With deep sadness that this has happened to you, Debra in Knoxville Tn
I love you Wendy.
I’m saying a prayer for you,……
Prayers for you and your family. ♥ One day may we meet in our forever home. You really did the best you could. You pretty much took care of yourself That’s pretty amazing. It’s not good bye “It’s later”. ♥
Positive thoughts for whatever your journey brings. Thanks you for years and years of regalement.
I am at a loss for words. Peace to you on your journey.
My love and prayers are with you.
You have made a huge impact on my life
And my own battle with MCTD.
You are an amazing woman!
Praying for you Wendy! Keep reaching out to the Lord in all of this! ((((hugs)))))
Oatsey, If you know anything more, please post it here. We don’t know if she still hanging on or has already passed away.
Thank you.
Carol
I have followed you for many years. Yours was one of the first blogs I ever followed. I have marveled at how you could maintain such a beautiful blog with pictures and excellent writing.
I have never understood how someone with your many hurts and ouches and illnesses could have such clarity of mind.
I wish you comfort and peace ~ you have suffered for so long. I don’t know how you do it. I hope we can hear from you again. This is Tuesday and I’ve never known you to miss a day of blogging. Nothing yesterday and I hope my fears are wrong ~
peaceful passage ~ Wendy ~ much love
I’ve been following you from the time you wrote about your fantastic gardens on the Adirondack Forum. If ever there was a person that God needs to embrace, it is you. I pray that this journey through our existence brings you peace, and that Heather knows people care about her also.
I’ve followed your blog since the Peace N Carrots days. I found it through a link from another site to the cabin that Heather built. I have loved your pictures and tales of your journeys. I wish you peace, and an easy passing on this next journey. Peace, love, and hugs, from a cyber-fan. You are an amazing woman with interesting insight, and I feel blessed to have seen into your life by reading over the years.
