I've been pretty absent from online lately... My mom died on July 15th. So I've been busy taking care of all the details and dealing with the psychological fall-out. I've peeked in here, but didn't have the distance until now to write about it here....
I do feel blessed, though, that in her illness for the last 6 months, we got through problems, were able to deeply express our love, and I was able to take care of her for a change! Some small payback for all she had done for me....
Never pass up the opportunity to tell your family you love them...

*Wraps you up tightly tight* Dearest friend, I am so sorry for your loss.......I had in fact wondered if your dear Mum had passed, and fully understand why you felt you were unable to write anything here. Please accept our love, strength and courage from across the sea to help as you grieve. How blessed you were to have that time together, it must make such a lot of difference to be able to share those precious moments, although so difficult to see her suffering.......perhaps again, 6 months of illness was again a blessing as she did not linger too long. Rest....... The memories and love I leave behind, are yours to keep. I have found my rest; have turned my face to the sun, and now I sleep. Alan CurtisStay safe and well, and know you are in my thoughts. xxxxxx

Dear dear Eiluna . . . my heart and prayers go out to you and all who love and mourn her. Almost two months now since you lost her, and I know firsthand that time isn't always what heals us after losing something so precious as a mother.
I can't believe how many around me have lost their parents this summer.

Eiluna:
I'm sorry to hear of your loss. I know they say time heals all but it still hurts along the way.

Thank you all for your kind words and support... it means a lot. Things are getting easier emotionally, now I'm dealing with her final affairs... It has become a time of personal growth... unavoidable, I guess with all the history that is dug up at a time like this! Letha, I know what you mean... Seems like a lot of people I know of passed this summer... (and April, surprised and happy to see you.. thanks... *S*)

Still thinking of you............ it does get easier, but even after 20 years without my Dad, it doesn't take much to set me off *hugs* Take each day as it comes and know she is only ever a whisper away. xxxxx

Was thinking of you today, as it is the first year anniversary of losing my mother. No matter how we prepare ourselves, it is difficult. You are in my prayers and please accept my condolences.
