It seems that the posts that I thought were posting to this blog last week didn't happen. I know for most people this is old information, but felt it was important to get everything recorded here too.

Mom has progressed quite rapidly since yesterday and hospice has guessed that we don't have much time based on her symptoms. We've called close family and have had a lot of family here today. Please feel free to text, call, pray, visit if you need to. Mom is comfortable and hospice is helping to keep her that way. Thank you for all of your continues prayers and support. Much love to everyone.

Jesus has called home our angel. Mom went to be with Jesus in heaven at 9:37pm tonight. She was surrounded with all of our family and just slipped into heaven peacefully We are eternally grateful for your prayers and support during this time.

Thank you to everyone for your kind words, your thoughtful stories, and your prayers. Our family is forever grateful for your support through this time. Mom's life was filled with fun and goodness and we are blessed to be able to celebrate her life with so many of you.
We will continue to update the blog as our journey is not over. Dad has been holding up well and we are all blessed by your prayers and support.

Melissa,
ReplyDeleteI know that your family knows how everyone felt about your mother. She was just a character - the good kind. And she loved and was so very proud of her family.
I know that your journey is not over and I pray for strength and courage for all of you.
