  1. I am sorry for your loss. All the advice I have been given is to allow yourself to grieve. Your father's time came when it was suppose to. I understand exactly what you are going through, I too continue to replay times and moments over in my head, it is part of the grief process. Hopefully by writing it down in your post, you have found relief. Cry if you must, it is a release, at least for me. Big hugs...
  2. I am sorry for your loss. I too have the picture of my mom in my memory. Hospice called and said I should come, but by the time I got there she was gone. I will never forget her face in death. The nurse said that she went peacefully. You sound like a very loving daughter. God Bless!
  3. Today is a week when mom left. I am entering the shoulda, coulda, woulda phase. Maybe if I had not let her go to hospice and demanded continued treatment, but the doctor said it was not beneficial. Her organs had begun to shut down, plus she would not eat and mostly slept while still in the nursing home. Even before her final hospitalization, mom seemed to give up. After so many months of hospitals and nursing homes and me talking to seemed like millions of people, I was emotionally exhausted. I just wanted what was best for mom. I just wanted to be sure that I was making the right decision. I begged her not to give up. How naive I was thinking that she would come home after hospice. I read in another posting that God had a plan with mom, even if I didn't understand it and there was nothing that I could have done to change it.
  4. Thank you for for your comments. When the pain becomes too much, I just say aloud, Mom I love you!
  5. My heart goes out to you, I am beginning the process of mourning. I am thankful I found this site.
  6. My mother died on Sunday (9-14-2014). I knew death was coming, even thinking about it, but never really expected it. I was in denial. Her journey to Heaven begin in March, 2014. Numerous trips to the hospital, nursing homes and then Hospice. I got the call from Hospice that my mother was taking her last breaths and to come. When I got there, her body was then but her soul had gone home. All the tears I had been holding back came out. I hugged her, but at the same time I wanted to run, run out of that room and to stay there with her. Part of me is happy that she is at peace because she (82) was so unhappy. She was an active woman most of her life, very independent and headstrong, and her not being able to go and do as she pleased, made her angry and depressed. I tried to make it easy for her, but without success. I tell myself she IS happy now and at peace.
