Best Mom




Mom had a peaceful night
I stayed with her until around 9 this morning
when my sister showed up

We are lucky Mom has been sleeping
not needing morphine
she wakes up a bit to say hi
or go away 
( to her wonderful Hospice aide Brian)
even to ask to go home...of course

I'll go back in a few hours
I'll be staying overnight as long as needed 

Mom always laughs at me for printing out these 
coloring pages and coloring them for her...
she knows I've loved to color
way before it way cool for adults

Thank you all for your kind words and prayers
I know so many of you have gone through this
with parents and loved ones...
  
your thoughts and insights over the years
have helped me 
very much

You are such a good daughter. In years to come, you will look back and see the beauty in all that you are doing for your mother. She knows that you are there with her...and she is proud.

I am so glad she had a good night and prayers for continued peace and so glad you are able to spend the extra time with her. The relationship that you and your mom have is a treasure, I always wished my mom was still around when I finally got into sewing and crafts, and be able to share it together.
