2. I'm so sorry, SG.
What a beautiful job you did of writing about it. I'm glad your mother had so many with her when she died, but I am sorry you could not be there.

She sounds like a wondeful mother indeed. I'll keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers.

9. Oh SG, I am so sorry for your loss
I will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers. :hug:

My mom just turned 74 on Feb 7 and I thank God for every year she and my Dad (who will be 78 May 5) are with me. This is just a reminder how precious life is and how we should treasure the time we have with our loved ones.

10. Did I ever tell you that you are my Fav?
Edited on Mon Feb-11-08 10:47 PM by Botany
I am so sorry .... i wish there was something I could say .... but the elegance of
your writing reflects with a white hot light about the qualities of your mother
and the qualities that still live in you.

It is so great that she passed on her bed in her house.

11. Just saw this. I am so sorry for your loss.

After reading you link I thought what a beautiful tribute to your mom and she sounds like a great mom all the way to the end. I know there are no words that can make everything better so won't even try. Just know you are in my heart and prayers along with the whole family. Please take the time to take care of yourself in this hard time both physically and emotionally as sometime people forget to think of themselves as they are trying to help those they love.

14. I am truly sorry, SG
You're certainly in my prayers.

Always remember that you have folk here who care for you, and reading the thoughts on this thread give me hope that you'll pull through this. My mom went home to glory 20 years ago this coming August, and while it was extremely hard for me then, I cherish her memory even today. You can PM me anytime and know that Jesus loves you and so do I.

Be not dismayed, what e'er betide,
God will take care of you.
On eagle's wings, of love abide,
God will take care of you.

Keep the faith, my sister!
