So sorry for your loss Bob. I am also elated that her pain has ended and she is in, what has to be, a better place. I know you are strong enough to get through these difficult next few days and weeks....but please allow yourself to let go and grieve. It's necessary and healthy. You are in my prayers.

Capn, I think it is the most we can ask -- that they die peacefully. I know the house is going to seem empty without her. I'm sorry she is not with you anymore.

Captain... I pray for your complete healing and that your next assignment in this life will bring your great joy and adventure. As you've served your Mom in her hour (months) of need, I pray blessings are unleashed upon you in ways not imagined.

Your Mom was loved to the end. You showed that.

Captain, May you cherish the wonderful memories and find comfort in knowing her pain is gone! May she find peace and eternal happiness. Thoughts and prayers for you to heal and continue with a life that will continue to make your mom proud! To have a son who cared and was there in her journey to the other side, as a mom, I know she is already proud of you!!! (as far as SIS, I am proud of you for standing your ground and having the house all for yourself and the bird!! Kudo's Captain!!)

Captain,
I only recently started reading this board, always appreciated your inputs. Your mother knew you loved her, that is the greatest gift you can give anyone. Catch your breath, and take care of yourself now.
I am sorry for your loss.

I hope you will allow me to post some of my medicine circle thoughts without the least intention of trampling on anyone else's beliefs. I am a philosophy of spirituality and religion person, believing there's room for everything and it all comes down to the same thing anyway, just a different way of explaining it.

My perspective is that your mom is now out of her temporary corporeal body and fully vested back into her energy body. If Albert Einstein is to be believed: E=mc(squared) -- sorry, I couldn't get my android to do a superscript -- Energy never goes away, it only changes form. Even as well as a person maybe, as unable as they are to communicate, when finally out of body, perfect health is experienced, perfect communication is restored; the only problem is, it's hard for US to "hear" them. To the extent that we can open up our own energy channels, to that extent can we communicate with their new energy stream. They are not truly gone, it just seems like it to us. And in the middle of all the physical things we must do to mark their passing, to honor the physical being that they were, to demonstrate the love and respect we know they deserved, to participate in the human grieving process, all of that puts the possibility of on going to medication with our dearly departed a little bit on the back burner.

Cap'n, I take notice, acknowledge, appreciate and honor all you did for your mom. In spite of weird and inappropriate behavior on the part of your family -- and don't know any of us relate to that? -- you have friends here who think you are a super person.

corrections ... again *sigh*

not "medcine circle" but METAPHYSICAL

even as UNwell AS a person maybe

not "of on going medication with our dearly departed"
but "of ONGOING COMMUNICATION with our dearly departed"

not "and don't know any of us relate to that?"
but "and don't MANY others relate to that?
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

AFTERTHOUGHT:

There is a special place for YOU on the other side for you, Bob.
