Yesterday my mom got to leave behind her tired, aching body and go home with daddy.
While it wasn't totally unexpected, I don't think we're ever really ready for this to happen.
I am SO GRATEFUL that all of us (mom, the sibs, everyone) were on good terms with each other and mom.
I am also beyond grateful for the faith I have that tells me that mom is truly in a better place, out of pain, able to walk and to be with her sweetheart. Yesterday was a long day and this week and next will be hard.
Mom and I didn't always see eye to eye and I was most definitely not her favorite child--but all that is over. I'm so happy for her.
Thanks to all of you who have reached out to me when I have been at my limit with CG and 'drama'. Your kind words have sustained me more than you will know.
(((((Hugs)))))))
Peace, Love & Light to you and yours.
I, like you, know that she is now in a better place and reunited with those who have gone before her. That is such a comforting thought especially when one of those people is her "sweetheart."
I pray for God's peace, comfort and strength to be with you in the days, weeks and months ahead.
Thanks for letting us know. Sending you a big hug, and a prayer for comfort.
And, while I’m at it, I’ll let you know that you have helped so many of us with our boundary setting and keeping ourselves sane. You’re a blessing to this community.
So sorry that your mom has passed. Wishing you peace and comfort. Big Hugs
So sorry for your loss.
The long journey with your mom is over. Rest up, move on, have a good life.
prayers and hugs for you
I think even when Decline is shadowing someone for a long time, it is still a shock to realise the end has come.
May your family continue to support each other through this time & all the mess life brings.
(((Hugs))) to you today 😍
Your Mom is free now.
Be kind and patient with yourself the next little while.
I'm happy for you that you are a person of faith. That helps a lot!
Take good care.
