Again, I'm so sorry that you and your family had to take that journey together. I'm glad, though, that there were some good times along the way.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02362687820368214420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31107400.post-59734453994585925422007-11-19T11:41:00.000-08:002007-11-19T11:41:00.000-08:00My three siblings and my dad gathered around my dy...My three siblings and my dad gathered around my dying mom very much like you all did. I know that our all being there for hours on end, doing nothing more than talking and joking, made her very happy while she was able to still enjoy it. <BR/><BR/>If there's any lesson in this for those who still have their moms... maybe get your siblings together and spend a quiet day just together with your mom as the center of attention. She'll enjoy it! and better to do it while she's well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31107400.post-25110924747853405542007-11-19T11:00:00.000-08:002007-11-19T11:00:00.000-08:00This was a beautiful post, Carol!

It was so very peaceful and for that I'm thankful. As far as getting used to being motherless, that will never happen. Mine has been gone for almost 19 years now and I still miss her and wish I could just once talk to her again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31107400.post-83037690733967700892007-11-19T09:30:00.000-08:002007-11-19T09:30:00.000-08:00I don't see mine as often as I would wish but at l...I don't see mine as often as I would wish but at least she's there.
