Last one to post........... Part 13

[Good Ol Gal]

Oh boy. I just got word that my Friends Mother passed away the other day and the Service is going to be held on Sat. afternoon. I feel so bad for her. She has taken care of her Mother for the past 13 years.

But that means I won't be able to meet Kim on Sat. Maybe I will call her and see about meeting her on Sun if things work out.

you take care of your friend!! I'm sure Kim will understand

 

[Mom2Ashli]

Okay so where did I lose everyone now.

 

[Mom2Ashli]

kelli I am so sorry
Kim will understand I am sure

I will BRB

It is kinda strange. I am sure my friend Joan is hurting for her Mother but she also just found out that her Son is expecting their first child. They live in Atlanta and Joan wanted to move up there to be closer to her Grandchild. But her Mother was needing too much care. So now her Mom passes as her Favorite Grandson will be bringing life to this world. Joan is 63 years old and is an amazing women. I take my hat off to her for the things she has had to deal with in life. And what she has become today.

Thanks. She was expecting it to be soon or later. Her mom has taking a turn for the worse over the last couple of months. I just saw her Sunday Night and she was telling me that she has been calling all her family to let them know if they have things they would like to say they need to say it NOW. And her Mom passed on Monday.

you know, I've never been to a funeral. I've only really known 5 people who have died (4 of them grandparents, 2 while I was very young). I am very blessed.

I understand the mixed emotions with Death and birth

The day we buried my Father in Law
His youngest son ( my fave BIL ) and his wife had their first child
talk about a roller coaster day

she was in Labor the whole funeral and didn't say anything until
after we buried him

Yes you are. I have been to more than I would want to be.

I lost 3 of my Grandparents, several older friends and my Father and also some friends from High School.

Wow. That would be a roller coaster.

And after my Father Passed away my Mother was in the Hospital having Open Heart Surgery. We were not sure what was going to happen at that point in Life. We were NOT ready to go thru that again.

Yes we didnt' have a real good TWO years. My Father had a stroke on the way to Jacksonville with a friend on DH's B-Day. We got the call and had to start driving to the hospital NOT knowing what he would be like when we got there. I slept in a chair in the hospital for a week. And it just went downhill from there.

I got home last night to my DD crying her heart out. She was watching All Dogs Go to Heaven and was missing our Greyhound that we had to put to sleep over a year ago. It was so sad and it just broke my heart. She was like if God will send her back to me I will give up all my toys and never ask for another one. Please why can't he just send her back to me.

 

[kaylajr]

I know how you felt
FIL was only 53 when he passed away but it was his 8th heart attack that finally killed him
and he was at DD's school when it happened

We had been thru so much
so mny days on end in hospitals and late night phone calls

at least he isn't in pain anymore


2000 was a bad year for us Jan 29 total my car
Feb 7th my best friend my grandmother died
Aug 18 my other grandmother died
Jan 31 2001 DH's grandmother died

felt like i never stopped greiving
and even though FIL died 11/03
somedays it still feels like yesterday
especially with the holidays

Death is so hard on the young ones

Death is so hard on the young ones

And this was the Dog. I don't know what I am going to do if something happens to my Mom. She has taken care of Ash since the day she was born. She sees her EVERYDAY! And if Ash doesn't call her on the weekends my Mom calls her just to see what she is doing and to tell her she misses her.

 

[kaylajr]

Ok I got some stuff to do
I will see you all later
