Soooo......my Mom is dying.

[Kitty 34]

I know quite the Click bait type of title.

I'm telling you because even though most of you are complete strangers still after all these years, this place is more comforting than the dramatics of family and their reactions.

My Mom is 93 and death will be her friend after a horrible year of suffering.

Timing......going into Mother's Day weekend with flowers in bloom and sunshine still dancing on the many gardens she tended next door to my house......is perfect. Just saying. (Tulips being her favorite)

Thank you for reading. You are very important; my DIS people.

Thoughts, prayers, and hugs for you and your family.

Please celebrate her this Mother's Day, and take care of yourself as well

 

[Pea-n-Me]

Aww, Kitty. So sorry.

I lost mine not too long ago at 94. It’s hard at any age to lose your Mom.

 

[QueenIsabella]

It's never easy. You're never ready. I'm sorry.

My mother-in-law died not long ago. She was 93 and the pandemic really brought her downhill rapidly in the last 2 years. She was a very social and active person until COVID hit and all the residents at the senior center she was at were basically kept in they rooms with minimal contact with others. Not saying they were "locked up" but it wasn't her style to watch TV and/or play on the computer for hours with only 4-5 other people having contact.

Prayers, and strength for you and remember the better times with your mother.

On this day in 2006 I lost my mother. My heart is with you, Kitty.

Prayers to you and your family.

So sorry. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.

Kitty.
Never easy. Glad you had so many good years with her.
My mother died at 59

Kitty, I am so sorry to read this. There are no words that will comfort you, but know that all your "DIS family" hold you in our hearts.

Aww I’m so sorry. My dad died 15 years ago today. I still miss him. Sounds like you have lots of good memories.

 

[easyas123]

Kitty, you have a wonderful approach to the situation.
I hope you have a peaceful weekend.

 

[TippyThomas]

I'm very sorry, Kitty. I hope for love and strength for you.

My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.

My Dad passed away 40 years ago, at 69. My mom will be 90 on her next birthday, and although I’ve tried to make sure we make the best of however much time she has with us, and mentally prepare, I am sure I will have no idea how to process it when her time comes.

Sounds like you’re already pretty self-aware regarding your coping mechanisms, and you’ll make it through this difficult time. But sending out extra ’s just in case.

 

[CdnCarrie]

I'm sorry to hear that. It's hard to lose a parent.

 

[MamaMermaid]

Sending lots of love.

 

[Jangles]

Thinking of you as you make your last memories.

So sad. Hoping you have 1 last beautiful Mother’s Day with your mom.
