My Mother who is in hospice will be passing tonight or by morning.

[texanwitch]

I spent the weekend at the home where the hospice is located.

It is something to see the living start to pass over.

I have great respect for the people who work in nursing homes and hospice centers.

My mother who I really never knew, had a interesting life.

I am having strange feelings now, when my Aunt who raised me died that was hard.

This isn't the same feelings, but this woman did carry me for nine months and I owe her my time.

My mother is a Navy vet, traveled the world during WWII.

Her ashes will be spread on the old farm she grew up on, this was her wish.

I will be receiving her flag, I will proud to accept it.

Sail on Mother to the next big journey, may it be a good one.

Thanks for the letting me know you for the last few months of your life.

3. Even a short time getting to know your Mom is precious

It says a lot about you in how much you value it.

10. I will be going back in a few hours.

Just needed to come home and get cleaned up.

My Mother is sleeping, has been sleeping for most of the weeknend.

She has alzheimers, very advanced along with her heart problem.

She has a journal she kept during WWII, I haven't read it yet.

I will take it with me to read, I will read it aloud to her.

[ElmStreetPlaza]

16. Go now

Please, stay as long as you can and you will always be at peace with yourself because you won't have to think about the "what ifs". They didn't tell us that our dad had died 15 minutes prior to us going into his room. We talked to him for about 1/2 hour before noticing that something was terribly wrong with him. We are left with the "What if" we had gotten their earlier. :hug:

9. My dear texanwitch...

What a beautiful tribute to your mom...

I'm glad you had time to get to know her a little these last few months. I know it was good for her too...

Safe passage to her.

I hope her journey is a good one, too.

...and glad that you got to know your mom, at least for a little while.
.
.
.
I'm thinking that was good for both of you.
.
.
.
When my older brother died completely unexpectedly at 33, it was very
very traumatic for me (and everyone who knew him).
.
.
.
MiddleFingerMomMom died in her sleep in hospice with advanced stage
Alzheimer's. A good full life and a belief system that she would be
going to a very cool place and see all her friends and relatives who
passed before her.
.
She was ready... even eager.
.
.
.
It was about as good a passing as one could wish for.
.
.
.
She is still with me -- I can "hear" her from time-to-time... what
she might have to say about different things currently.
.
.
.
Your mom will probably always be with you, too.
.
.
.
Her journey on this plane is over. I hope yours is filled with love
and joy -- as well as an appreciation for the experiences you had
with your mom.

Which it sounds like you've attained....I'm glad the last few months were positive and productive in your relationship with her.

It is really nice you were able to have some time with her. Alzheimer's is awful. Peaceful passage to your mom.
