My mother died.

[Cinnabunny]

I'm so sorry for your loss. From everything I've seen you post, you are a good son.
Take all the time you need and do look after yourself.

I woke up this morning and looked in on my mother and she had passed on.

She was 82 and had Alzheimers and other health issues and her body just gave out finally.

I knew it was coming and I know it was for the best but I'm still heart broken.

I've lost my dad, my brother, and now my mom.

Any good thoughts and/or prayers would be appreciated.

We are so sorry for your loss. We have you and your family in our prayers.

I'm so sorry for your loss, and am thankful you have family coming to be with you. We are all here too.

It's ok to feel everything you are feeling, and let those feelings pass through the process. Then it will be time to plan some time to ride the Pirates, fish, and relax on the beach while you can plan for the next step for you.

We are all here for you.

I'm so sorry for your loss. As a mother I can only hope that my children show as much love for me as you have shown for your mother. You should be proud of the way you cared for and loved her. Take time to mourn her loss but don't forget to take time for yourself.

So sorry for your loss.

OP You are in my thoughts and prayers for sure, I just lost my father 2 months ago and although it was expected , it was still a shock that he is gone. It will take some time but things do get easier with time. Try to focus on all the wonderful things about your mom, special times you have had with her etc and take comfort in knowing that she is at peace now.

I am so sorry for your loss. You're in my thoughts and prayers.

Sending a bunch of Pixie Dust and some prayers your way. Such a sad day.

Oh King Schultz, I am sincerely sorry for your loss.
Take comfort knowing she was at home with you.

Just checking in.

I'm still very sad but also kind of numb today too. I got some sleep; fitful. I want to curl up in the fetal position for about a month, but there are things to be done so I have to pull it together at least a little bit.


I'm not okay and I think it's going to be awhile before I;m okay again, but I'll get there.


Thanks so much for all the prayers, kind words, and support. It means more than I can say.

From the little I can tell, reading your posts, I really, truly believe you when you say you'll get there.

You've already figured out a way forward. You've set goals for yourself (fishing, Pirates, beaches, etc). I'm incredibly impressed with how well you're coping and I only hope we can manage as well as you have, when our time comes.

Take care, and don't forget to eat, shower and sleep.

I know what you're going through. It will eventually get easier, but that doesn't make today any less devastating. My heart breaks for you. I'll continue to pray for comfort & peace to come your way.

Thank you, but trust me, I'm a total mess right now.

It feels like I'll never be happy again, but I have to believe that's not true or I'll never get through this.

There's just been so much loss in my life over the past 8 years. All my immediate family.


I'll find a way to endure this, but right now I feel like a 56 yr old orphan.

So sorry to hear about your mother. I will keep you and your family in my prayers.

Hi Willy. 's

My condolences on mom's passing. As said so many times here by so many, you have been, you are, a good son. At church on Sundays, we often sing the song, Good, Good Father. You, Willy, are a good, good son.

I recall the times years back, calling you at home once in awhile. If you did not answer, you mom or dad would answer. Most of the time, if your dad answered, he would chat a bit and then hand off to mom. Your mom was always a hoot, enjoyable to talk with a bit, before handing off to you. Seemed like a wonderful lady, a very nice person, as you have often said here.

As I said before, Willy, it was great seeing you when you returned here last December as 'the King'. You were sorely missed over past years. You can see the many new friends you have made in the past months, many newer names in addition to many 'old timers' here on this thread for mom. I hope the folks here on the dis have been a comfort to you over the past months while taking care of mom. I think they have been, Willy. You have a good, fun way about yourself. I think your mom was like that also. Like mom, like son.

I did let Judi (Snoopy) know about your mom also. Her words, 'I am so sorry to hear that, please give Willy my regards'.

Take care, Willy, we'll talk in the future when the time is right. 's Mom is with dad and your brother now. You've been a good, good son.

Totally relate to feeling like an orphan! What helped me thru my mom's death was knowing she was no longer in pain. I knew she wouldn't want me to be sad for too long and I'm sure your mom would be the same!

VERY SORRY for your loss. Losing a parent is very, very hard. May her memory comfort you during this most difficult time.

Please tell Judi thank you and let her know she is in my prayers.
