My phone call came this morning around 9:30, and even tho I am sad she has died, I am so relieved she is no longer in pain. She went peacefully in her sleep, and none of the family was with her.

My youngest Sister still had not made it to see her, was off work today and loading the car to go when I called to tell her the news. She is so sorry she did not see her one last time, but she will deal with it in her own way.

We leave tomorrow. DeeDee

I'm so sorry about your mom, but I'm glad she went peacefully
:angel:

DeeDee,

My dear, I am so sorry for your loss. Know that your Mom is at peace and is no longer plagued by the demons that haunted our loved ones. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this time.

Your Mom is at peace..and you will be also...

Jill

My deepest sympathy goes to you DeeDee and to your family for your loss. I wish for you the strength and courage to get through the coming days. You Mom is pain free and at peace. We miss the loved ones as they were. I will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers...

Love, Deb

DeeDee...all who gather here understand your words..."sad she has died, but relieved she is no longer in pain". Such an awful journey this disease is for all involved.

So sorry for your loss........watching someone you love suffer is difficult, but that does not make loosing them easier. Sending love and prayers your way.........Pam

I'm so sorry for your loss - yet it is good that she went peacefully and is now in peace.

I visualize my mother when she has finally departed this life. Not in bed or a wheelchair but moving freely around, dancing, singing. Not unable to recall who is who and what is going on, but happily conversing with my dad who died in 1977, her Mom, and others who are waiting for her on the other shore. I believe these thoughts will comfort me when the time comes, when I no longer see her lying on a bed, unable to enjoy even her daily food - and she used to love to eat - and being free, not constrained to her broken and damaged body.

Your Mom is now free. I hope everyone in your family will deal with this in their own way, and accept their loss, and be close to each other.

Love,

Martha
