My mother who I love very much has passed on to her time with God. It was Oct 27 1982 when I went to the care home she was in at 2PM as was my visiting time. I went to her room and found her gasping for breath. I knew she was dying and ran to the nurse's station, on the way I met my nephew who was just coming back with a nurse. He said he had been trying to call me for the last hour but there was no answer. I had been next door having lunch with a friend during that time. The day before my mother and I had a wonderful visit. She was feeling great, happy and was glad to see my poodle as was everyone else who Muffin counted as friends at the home. I was glad we had that day together. I think God knew that I would be better with not sitting with her as she died. I thank him for having my friend invite me for lunch that day. My nephew was the one who watched her pass through to the next level of her spirit's journey. After we came home and I phoned my husband at work and he came home. It was later in the afternoon when the police showed up. I had no idea why they were here but they wanted to know if I was satisfied with the care Mom had received at the care home. I said yes I was and there was no complaints. My nephew said the same thing. My reason for writing this at this time is to say if you have a living mother, cherish her with all you have. You don't need to shower her with gifts, take her our for a lunch or dinner, if you can't afford that give her a big long hug, and tell her you love her with all your heart. That is what she wants to hear anyway.
Phone her if she isn't in your area.
