So very sorry for your loss Even when a person's health is failing, it is hard to wrap your head around it sometimes. I am sending prayers and good vibes. I do hope that each day gets a little easier for you than the one before it.

I want to thank everyone for their kind thoughts, prayers, and words of support; it means more than I can express.


My neighbors just came over to check on me and brought me something for dinner. . . I have a pounding headache but I feel a little more okay.

Thanks everyone again.

You will find relief and peace with the grieving process. I took care of my mom very hands on the last 2 years of her life.
The day after she passed here at the house. I couldn't hardly get out of bed or eat. I couldn't understand it, I took care of my dad before he passed, but not as long and not as intensive.
When he passed adrenaline kicked in so I could do arrangements and other business stuff, then it hit me.

My friend said that with taking care of my mom, non stop, all my adrenaline had been depleted.

You are just so mentality and physically exhausted, but it will pass.

Oh Willy, my deepest condolences. When I saw your thread title my heart became heavy.

You are a good son, and you did a great job of taking care of her at the most difficult time in her life. Alzheimer's is so difficult for everyone it touches, and caring for someone with it takes a lot of love and patience. You did good.

I'm glad it sounds like she passed peacefully, and is no longer in the agony of Alzheimer's.

And hugs to you dear Willy. I know you're happy she's no longer suffering, but in the same breath you still miss your mom.

Try and take care of yourself. I'm so sorry.

WillyJ I knew you were a good guy from the first time I read one of your Nyquil/Corn posts years ago. (even though it was that start of you taking away my #1 DIS ranking ) From reading your recent posts I could tell you are an exceptional son. I still miss my protector, my friend, my hero, my mother and it’s been 8 years. She was a fighter all of her life right up until the end. My father died in a tragic accident falling off of a roof when I was 3 years old, my brothers were 5 and 7 years old. She sacrificed everything for us, never going out, never buying anything nice for herself. Always making sure we had everything the other neighborhood kids had. Taught us how to do everything from throwing a mean curve ball to hanging wallpaper. Always steering us in the right direction in life. I do still miss her but I always smile and get a warm feeling inside of my heart when I think about her. I am sure you will too. (thinking about your mom not mine ) Sorry for your loss. Prayers to you and your family my friend.

The funeral guy read this poem at my mother’s grave. (it didn’t help.. I still wept)

Do Not Stand At My Grave And Weep - Poem by Mary Elizabeth Frye

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there. I did not die.
