My Dearest Friends:
It saddens me to tell you that my mother took a turn for the worst.
She was rushed into ICU this early morning hours. She suffered a severe heart attack and both of her lungs are collapsed due to pneumonia.
She is unconscious, the doctor put her on a ventilator even though it was not her wishes. For he told my brother who lives back there, "I know your sister and mother have a very tight bond and this way she can get to say goodbye to her and the rest of your brothers when the family gets here". T
The doctors said, this is the only reason she is alive right now because she is on the ventilator.
So, my "Dear Mother is Dying". And I can't keep it together...I have cried all day and even as I am writing this.
Trying to get a flight from the West Coast to the East Coast at this late time because of Christmas was a nightmare. I took us my Husband and I several hours searching. Finally we found 2 seats on a flight out on Sunday.
My Mothers Birthday's is December 29 th, she would have been 87. I can not express to you the pain that is in my heart.
I will have plan her funeral and make all the arrangements when I get back east.
Along with caring for my 92 yr old Father.
I will not be able to carry on the "Daily Positive Thoughts", for awhile...I am going to be strapped.
Please someone, just take over until I can do it again.
Please do not let this die too...
I had to get permission from my doctors to travel. I will have to do chemo every Wednesday while I am back east too.
Please keep me in your prayers.
Blessings, Love and Hugs

Dear Bellabutterfly~
One of the saddest things we have to do-saying goodbye to our mothers.
I hope everywhere you go you will be surrounded by the love of others and also your mother's love for you.
That is a poem I have had for many years. I have always loved it. Surely your mother will be with you still, always.
