Well it's finally over!

For those who dont know my mother has been ill for quite awhile, and I was helping take care of her. (I broke my right arm so this will be short as it hurts to type)She was in CCU for six weeks and died yesterday at 5:30p.m. from kidney failure.

I am very upset and sad, and alot of tears have fallen. But I am also relieved that she is not in pain anymore. Now she can rest and find peace, it was time to say goodbye, and I am happy for her in that regard.

She was one of the best mothers a kid could have asked for and she will be missed so very much.

A strange thing occured three times before her passing though, Lady Bugs (in a cluster above her bed) were observed in her hospital room twice before she died. And then my father saw them in his bedroom (on his cieling) the night she passed away as well. We feel it was her special angel letting us know she was going home, and that all would be ok.

TW im sorry for your loss

but at least she got taken care off i lost my all my grandparents in a period of 5 years and it devasted my parents but you get over it. sad part was that they never got see their parents before they died.

my moms dad woke froma coma a few days before he died to tell my youngest uncle he was gonna be prosperous after period of depression. soon enough my uncle tried to poison himself and stuff and he sold the house and him and his family had to life with my aunt now he owns a successful car parts dealership.

Illmatic,

That is such a sad story, I am so very sorry. You are right my mom did get loving care from my sister and I before she passed. I miss her something awful already, but I am so grateful that she is not suffering any longer.

Now she is with her Mom and Dad, and her two brothers and sister that have all passed before her. Her oldest sister is the only one still here with us now, and she has failing health from breast cancer.

I am very worried about my dad though, because my parents were married over fifty years and he is just so lost without her now. He doesnt know quite what to do with himself and is extremely depressed. If anyone has any suggestions that may help us help him please share them ok.

Again thanks for your kind words, they are appreciated.

Hi TF2~
I too was saddened to read about the passing of your Mother. It is never easy to sustain a loss and loosing a parent is one of the most difficult. Alana is so right on when she says that you now have a "forever friend" - you are now connected through the invisable umbilical cord and all communication is free - anytime, any day for as long as you like. She is there for you - listen and watch for signs because they do happen- I KNOW. 😉

Your Dad - yes, it will be hard for him. Allow him if he chooses to express his feelings, he needs to share them when the time is right for him. He needs to know and feel that he matters, his life matters. This is a huge change for him and I wish for him a successful transistion. Hugs and a listening will do wonders for him - love is the cure and I'm sure you will have no problems with that quality dear TW2 🙂

My heart and prayers are with you and your family
