Guest guest Posted April 4, 2004 Report Share Posted April 4, 2004 Dear , My condolences on your mom..... I pray she will rest in peace.... I went thru this with my mom for over a year, 13 years ago, when she had incurable cancer. I'm glad you were able to say something to her before she passed...and that you got to see her in February.

I am sure that helped her feel at peace, knowing you were ok and that you loved her, and just being able to hear your voice. She knew you were with her, even if you were not physically standing beside her. It is ok. You were close in spirit. My prayers are with you, And your family.

Guest guest Posted April 4, 2004 Report Share Posted April 4, 2004 --my RISG was just restored after mysteriously disappearing at the beginning of February. Knew your mother was ill, but not that you'd been home nor that she was going so quickly. You are in such a difficult place to be able to truly grieve--I hope you have made some understanding friends there, or perhaps can come home for a few days around May 1? Just to be able to surround yourself with family for a bit . . . . It's wonderful you were able to speak with your mother, so she knew you were " with " her, too. Please know that I care and am thinking of you. --bc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 4, 2004 Report Share Posted April 4, 2004 I am so sorry and I understand your grieving so much! It's Easter time and I miss my mom so much, too! She passed away last October and it still hurts. I guess she had AS, either and I finally understand what she went through and how brave she was. Loosing a mother even when you are quite grown up is very tough. We have to be brave as they were so we can raise our children with hope, even when we feel we've lost it. Talk to her whenever you can, she'll be by your side and come to you in your dreams. Moms never die. Feel free to write. Jacinta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 4, 2004 Report Share Posted April 4, 2004 So very sorry to hear about your Mom. I lost mine to Cancer in August of 2003. You made the right choice in going home in Feb. What a blessing to have been able to talk to her before she passed. She felt you spiritually and held out to hear your voice once more. My Mom did the same for my daughter. Keep talking with her - she's listening! Janet - Ohio Undif Spondy - Fibro - CFS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 4, 2004 Report Share Posted April 4, 2004 , I join with the rest of our family here in giving you many loving hugs and prayers for your pain. I'm so glad she got to go to rest at home....My mama was in the hospital and so was daddy....I was with daddy when he died---but mama I never even got to go to her funeral because of freeing temperatures. Home is the most peaceful and calm and she had had the joy of hearing your voice so she did feel you with her too I'm sure....H HUGS Liz ~~~~~~ " Happiness comes of the capacity to feel deeply, to enjoy simply, to think freely, to risk life, and to be needed.

Guest guest Posted April 5, 2004 Report Share Posted April 5, 2004 , I'm so sorry. I hope you can feel the peace of knowing your Mom is no longer suffering. God is amazing in how he makes things happen, like your last visit and your phone call shortly before she passed away. Hearing your voice might have helped her let go. This is one of the toughest things a human being ever endures, so like Matt said so much more eloquently than I, let yourself grieve in your own way and your own time. No right or wrong when it comes to grieving. Love and blessings, Janet in SF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 7, 2004 Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 ~ My deepest and most heart-felt condolences to you and your family during this difficult time. I am so sorry for you as you mourn your mother's passing. Take comfort in the knowledge that she is no longer in pain and her spirit now knows freedom without bounds. Grieve in your own time and in your own fashion, but grieve for yourself not for your mother for she is blessed with a new life that exceeds even our imaginations. I hope that the Easter season reminds you of the renewal and life to which we are called when we pass from this earth. My father has chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and we consider each day we have with him a gift from God; however, from that circumstance, I know it is extremely hard to watch a beloved parent suffer. I know from your posts how much it meant to you to be able to spend some time with your mom in February and I am certain that she knew your voice as you said your last goodbyes by telephone. I'm grateful that you were given that opportunity and hope that you will view it as such. May God bless you, comfort you and keep you wrapped in the warm and loving memories of your mother until such time as you are reunited with her. You and your family will remain in my thoughts and prayers. Warmest regards, (NC) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
