My mom just died.....

I know a horrible way to start off the topic, but it is what it is. Tonight I got a call from her husband saying that she was having a heart attack and that the ambulance paramedics were working on her and trying to revive her. After 20 minutes still no luck. I made it to surrey where she lived and went to the hospital but it was too late... she was already gone.

There is more to the storey, but its 2am and just got home and really dont have my head on straight.. for those of you who are waiting for readings, or for your payments to be scheduled or even the free and winning readings.. please accept my apologies for the delay.. I am not sure if its going to be a day or two before I can feel back into the swing of things as I know my mom would not want me to put my life on hold.

More to follow.
Best wishes

Something I wanted to share

Don't think of her as gone away
her journey's just begun,
life holds so many facets
this earth is only one...
Just think of her as resting
from the sorrow and the tears
in a place of warmth and comfort
where there are no days and years.
Think how she must be wishing
that we could know today
how nothing but our sadness
can really pass away.
And think of her as living
in the hearts of those she touched...
for nothing loved is ever lost..
and she was loved so much.
Take care.

Don't try to just be strong and put it all behind you and move forward without taking time to greive. It has a nasty way of coming back at you when you least expect. Take care of yourself!

Oh Cheri I am so sorry for your loss!!! Huggles.

I hope that you and your family are finding a way to be there for eachother through the greiving and loss.

I am also sorry that you werent able to say goodbye before she was gone. That is what happened with my mom. My aunt and dad called to say my mom was having heart palpatations and needed to be intubated.. so my hubby and I scrambled to figure out how to get home to here (8 hours away). By the time we were on the road we got another call and she had already passed. My hubby had to pull over cause even he started to cry. It just doesnt seem fair does it.

I wanted to share a poem that my mom sent to me before she passed as something she wanted read at her funeral. It still makes me smile when I read it because I know she is in each word and idea through out! I hope it can give you some comfort too!

When I'm Gone

When I come to the end of my journey
And I travel my last weary mile
Just forget if you can, that I ever frowned
And remember only the smile.
Forget unkind words I have spoken
Remember some good I have done.
Forget that I ever had heartache
And remember I've had loads of fun.
Forget that I've stumbled and blundered
And sometimes fell by the way.
Remember I have fought some hard battles
And won, ere the close of the day.
Then forget to grieve for my going,
I would not have you sad for a day.
But in summer just gather some flowers
And remember the place where I lay.
And come in the shade of evening
When the sun paints the sky in the west.
Stand for a few moments beside me
And remember only my best.
by Mrs. Lyman Hancock

Again I am so sorry for your loss.
