I'm so sorry for your deep loss.  I hope during this time of grief you can hold onto those pleasant memories and good times you shared.  I pray that you will keep the concerned thoughts and love from those in your life close to you as you work through your sadness and loss.

Take very special care of yourself....My prayers and thoughts are with you.

I'm here for you during this time of sorrow and loss.

Currently, a lady from a ministry that I belong to, is also in the hospital.  her cancer has returned and she has pneumonia.  Our ministry is believing for a miracle for her, but most of us think she is going to depart soon.  I understand how your heart feels right now.

 Please lean on us at Vboard as much as you need to, dear.

To All,

  I have read your warm responses, and I appreciate this more than I can say.  I will be able to talk more later, but it's too raw to explain right now.  My mom did leave me with some good moments to cherish in the last couple of days- one of these was  sincere
thanks when I did a couple of small things.

  Busy with finalizing details- visitation is tomorrow, and funeral Friday.

You might want to write something out.... whatever you still need to say or have her take with her.... include pictures and maybe a drawing if you like that sort of thing.

It always helps me with grieving..... to put things down in words and sit with them like that.

Comforting to remember the things I sent along with my loved ones..... things that I put love into for their jouney.

Dear Cat, hope that with time you feel more encouraged to share about your mom and your experience towards the end. Everybody loves you here and miss you deeply. The Lord will walk with you in these moments of pain.
We will keep you in our prayers.

Sorry for your loss, take good care of yourself as you're grieving- I think it lowers the immune system and makes us very vulnerable.

When my mother died I had a tearful 'conversation' with her out in the woods and wrote a poem. I called her mother and had a long talk with my half-sister; neither lead to any relationship-building but it was positive for that point at least.

I was so sad the opportunity for reconciliation or relationship was gone, but I am glad she is at peace, she was very troubled.

Your good memories in the last days are something precious to cherish.

Love

Cats Paw,
Sometimes a sincere thanks can be an apology.

I am thinking of you every day when I look at the board,
and I see your thread title, and I think of perspective.

My mom also died January 7th and I wasn't with her, due to distance factor.

Post by: lighter on January 12, 2008, 03:38:50 PM
Sorry to hear that, kelli.

Would you like to start a new thread and tell us about your relationship with her?

How you're doing?

Welcome and looking forward to hearing from you.

  Just letting everyone know that your ongoing support is so touching that it brings me to tears.

  I still can't write much, much less read or respond to other's posts, and it feels so wonderful to know it's still ok to check in.

  kelli - was your mom ill?  I still can't believe mine is gone.  I hope you'll return to write when you're able.
