Pepper, ugh...

I know how hard this must be. My mother died over 21 years ago at age 51.It was so difficult for my father, my sisters and I. Mother's Day is still hard for us even after all these years.

I have always felt her with me, very strongly at times so in a sense she is not very far away.

One of the "gifts" in this is that my father, sisters & I are very close as a result. We have never let petty family squables tear us apart - we just don't allow it. We are blessed this way and pull together to help each other more as a result - which would please my mother greatly.

Blessings to you and your family

Deeply sorry. I know she was lucky to have you with her in her last days.

Prayers are with you.

Hi Pep! I never had the opportunity to "talk" with you..I came on board just as this was happening...

My deepest condolences go out to you. I will pray for you and your family.

Take care!

Thanks everyone.

It's two weeks today .... I held her face in my hands while she took her last breath. <img border="0" alt="[Teary]" title="" src="graemlins/teary.gif" />

We have lots of good support from loved ones, and grief counseling from hospice.

Death isn't goodbye forever. I'm sure Andrew and others can show her "the ropes" up there. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

Until today it has been quite some time since I have cried over something I read on MB.

I wish I had the words -

I don't know exactly how you feel - it hasn't happened to me yet. Somehow nothing comes to me to say.........nothing seems to be enough.

I care, I pray for all of you - I trust you will be OK in time. I wonder how the other things are going........I hope there is peace even if there is sadness.

God be with you.
