With the help from Hospice of the Bluegrass, and lots of morphine, she died peacefully at home as she wanted. I was holding her hand when she took her last breath. As some of you know, I bought DVC with the gift she gave me before she died. Although I love having DVC, of course I'd rather have my mother back.
On the up side, my first trip home on June 20th is a go. I'm glad I've gotten all the planning completed because my heart isn't into it now. The planning did serve as a great distraction/escape from what was going on in "real life", but I still feel a bit guilty planning/estimating the time of her death in order to make my ressies.....but, I guess that's the planner in me. I must say, I did a pretty good job of it. I've got just enough time to help my father prepare thier 4BR house to put on the market for sale before I go on the trip. (He wants a smaller house with NO STAIRS.)
Hopefully, I'll be able to talk Dad into taking a trip with me in October. Christmas is out this year as my new grandchild is due during the time I'd planned to go. I need to be here in order to begin my Disney brainwashing,,err, I mean help care for her/him.
Visitation is on Tuesday & the funeral Wednesday and much to do afterwards so I might not get to DIS until the weekend.
TA TA for now!
