The passing of my mother

[michelleric]

Dearest forum family,

It is with a VERY broken and heavy heart that I let you know my mom passed away last night.  I do believe she died from a worried and traumatic month this has been for my family.  With my dad in the hospital, she couldn't go on. They have been married just a month shy of 55 years. Please keep me and my family in your prayers. My siblings and I will be making the funeral arrangements today. I am in shock. Just when you think things are looking up, life once again slams you down.

Thanks for being here and being my cyber "family",

Michelle

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 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
