I am devastated. My only solace is that she is with the LORD now. But I am really upset with my siblings as they did not take turns by her bedside - even though it was so clear that she was in her last days. They were not there as they went to do an errand - only one could have left my mom's side - but they all left - left her alone and several hours later she passed on.
What is hard for me is that I had sent an email out to my siblings as there are issues between siblings and they prefer not to see each other. I sent out an email to ask for schedules for mom's care (mind you, I am out of the country and was doing this via email and video conferencing) - so MOM would always have love near her as she progressed in her decline. And two of my siblings were very angry with me for asking them about time with mom. Now I realize - they didn't want to stay by her bedside. They did not want to be there when she took her last breath.
I feel guilty I was not there by her side. But I could not do so...
Oh, Mom, I will miss you dearly... and look forward to seeing you one day in heaven.
You are in my thoughts and prayers. God bless.
i was sitting at my pc late at night when sis came and told me the cheynne stokes breathing had ceased. i found it pointless to sit and morbidly watch someones body shut down. sis was in hog heaven but then sis is a freaking ghoul, imo.. a time to live, a time to die, then lets go have fried chicken and pie.
see what i mean? everybody is different, i dont want no gd chicken and pie.
