Through the years she slowly progressed to being on a ventilator for the last five years. Robin had a spirit of never giving up. She was hospitalized many times. She never complained. For the last 10 years, she resided at her sister and brother-in-law’s house in Fayetteville,Georgia. Over the years she had the love and care of very special care givers. They became family. They were Christine Yorke, Esther Amponsem, Wilma Blunt, Lourdes Dinina, Perpetua Gymabra, Iona Durham, and Sandra Fulton. She also had the assistance of a special respiratory therapist, Ursula Slaughter. Robin was unable to attend church but was ministered to by the Rev.Harris on every visit to the hospital from Jonesboro First Baptist Church. Robin fought a hard battle. She always relied on her faith in Jesus.
