(2,244 posts)32. What a beautiful testament to your mom and the love that you share
Wishing the best possible and the easiest of roads for your mom and you.
Having cared for my mom until her passing, and understanding that no one can 'know' another's journey or another's pain, there are parts of your path that will look familiar to those who've walked a similar one, who can imagine how it may be traveled. You and your mom are in my thoughts, and my heart goes out to you both.
May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again,
may God hold you in the palm of His hand.
