An Explanation

I will keep your family in my thoughts. Keep doing the little things that you enjoy and take to heart that she will always be with you.

My favorite person was my husband's grandmother. She was such a happy genuinely good person. She was 96 when she died almost three years ago. One day my older son was chattering to me about this or that when I was changing his brother and the subject switched over to angels. He said, "I already know my angel. Amma watches over me." The simple rationalization of a child, his great-grandmother never left him, he just can't see her right now.

I hope my little story has offered you some comfort. I also hope your mother has more good years before her.
 
I've been there, too. It's been ten years since I lost my mom, but we knew from the start that the lung cancer was terminal. Every minute was a treasure, even those when she was crying or in pain. I never wanted to leave her side. I will light a candle on our altar for you and your family. If you need to vent, cry or just talk it out, you can call me. Never feel like a burden for needing to let it out to your friends (I know some people don't want to "whine" about their emotional problems, but it's something you have to let out). So remember that I've been in your shoes and I can listen. Blessed be.
