Of course we will keep your family in our prayers. I lost my mother this past January 22 from Scleroderma. I know exactly how you are feeling and I give you a huge cyber hug.
Am so sorry that you have had to endure so much in such a short amount of time. YOu need to get some rest. Let your siblings and /or husband take your shift at the rehab facility. Then , you need to contact either your PCP or neuro and explan what you are going through and get some medical help, either another round of predniosne or something to help you sleep.
My heart is so sad for you. I wish I could wave a magic wand and make it all go away but I can't. But, I can be here when you need to talk so never hestitate to send me a message regarding anything. I can be your sounding board to say the things you can't say out loud.
Please, please take care of yourself! I remember you being adamant about me not cleaning my house. Listen to the great advice you gave me and apply it to yourself.
Lots and lots of hugs!
With love, hugs and prayers,
Brenda
Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers at this time. We buried my mother yesterday, and it was by far the worst day in my life. "They" say time heals all wounds, I can only hope that to be true.
I am not well either. I have spent the last 4 days with my father in his rehab facility. It is also a nursing home and the heat was on and it was 80 degrees outside. It was probably well over 90 in the place. The no sleep, heat and stress, are doing me in again. I hope this is just a temporary set-back.
Thanks again for all your kind words...
Michelle
Michelle,
I can't even begin to know your pain. I'm so sorry you are going through this sorrow of losing your mother. I will pray for you that you feel God's comfort through this sorrow.
God Bless You,
Deborah
Oh, you poor child! Having your mother pass on to the other side is bittersweet---we want the best for them, and that is surely the best,to be with Jesus, but particularly when it is unexpected, it also seems like the worst. Rest assured that there are so many on this forum who understand and want you to be comforted. We will help our Lord do just that; please let us, particularly while you provide comfort for your father.
Also, Michelle, your mother's presence will never leave you; she will be right there.
Write if I can help---and continue to get more than enough sleep! With tenderness, Jane
I am so sorry to hear about your mother. Having lost my mom three years ago, I can empathize with what you must be going through. Maybe some additional medication to help your nerves might be helpful now. You need to get more rest, take extra care of yourself now with naps etc. Your father will need comforting too and I hope your family rallies around him at this time. It is a terrible time for you, but you will get through it.
In deepest sympathy,
WAF
I am so sorry for your loss. Expect to be extra tired after the funeral. Grieving is hard work, but know this...it will ease up after a while. As you remember the good times, you will learn to smile again.
It's been 3 years since my wonderful mother and my best friend "moved" home. I still talk to her on occasion, just like, Lord, tell Mom I really miss her, etc. Somhow, I find it comforting to know that she is watching over me, and rooting me on, and waiting for the day when we'll never be parted again.
I will be praying for you and your family.
Michelle,
I am so sorry for your loss. It seems like you have had more pain and trials then anyone should have to endure in a life and you have had it all in such a short time.
I lost my father so I do know the pain that you are going through.
You need the 3 F's (no not that F silly)
Faith, Family & Friends will see you through. Don't forget that we are here and thinking of you.
As impossible as it sounds quix is right delegate if you can, don't overdue and cause a flair on top of everything.
Prayers & Hugs,
Erin
I am so sorry for your loss! You are in my prayers!
I am so sorry for your loss. You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers. And remember, do no more than you want to do. And don't feel that you have to do what others think you should do. You can retreat to your room and spend some time remembering and crying by yourself if you feel like it.
Prayers
Maggie

Oh, Sweetie, I'm so sorry for this shock and tragedy! You have been so worried about your father and to suddenly lose your mom, must be an inconceivable blow. You have all my deepest sympathies and I will keep you and your family close in my heart as you move through this horrible time.
Know that we are all here to be with you, help in any way we can, and we understand that this is all very hard for you. You must try to get adequate rest, so delegate whenever you can. If you overdo and break down it won't help anyone. All this puts you at risk for a relapse.
We love you. Hold on to your faith.
((((HUGS))))

I'm so sorry for your loss. I'll be sending warm and peaceful thoughts to you and your family as you go throught this difficult time.
Your "other" family is here for you, and have broad shoulders to cry on, sympathetic ears for listening to memories of your mother and your family over the years. It might be a good idea to write a journal when the numbness wears off, when the arrangements have been made, when you can take a deep breath again.
Hugs,
Kathy

Michelle it is hard enough to lose a parent when there is a lingering illness and you have time to prepare..not except but prepare. When we lose one suddenly the grief is such a shook to our systems. Please take care of yourself as much as possible during this time and know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
Wishing you peace and strength to carry you through the times ahead.
