Mom died
It was at 4 am on sat the 7th that I got the call, mom passed, even after the long bout with dimentia it was a hard thing to hear. We all gathered at dads and in a few moments we mad all the choices we had to make. She would be burried on sunday the 8th in the family plot and all that was left was the task of calling all the family. She had been sick for so long, we all seemed to be ok at first but we all have our cracks now. Dad is not sleeping well I seem to be like him and getting up alot. It is better this way she is nolonger in torment without the language she loved so much. I miss her alot. She is now reasting not far from max and ester and alex hatty and max too. It was a long drive back knowing I would not see her again.

I am so very sorry for your loss. Even when people are sick and we know in our minds it is for the best...our hearts don't always see it that way :) Sending my love and prayers to you and your family.
so sorry about your loss. I just read this on Noel's blog. Thinking of you and keeping you in my prayers.

Oh, man, I'm sorry. We just lost my godfather after dementia. Conflicted feelings -- on one side, my godmother had prayed for him to be released, but on the other side, being able to sit and pat someone's hand has value, too.
I'm so sorry. Be gentle with yourself.
So very sorry for your loss. Losing a parent, no matter the circumstances, is not easy.
Thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
