Today was a sad day, but happy because my mother is free from pain and able to walk again. She won her final war with pain at 4:10 this afternoon. She had battled sickness for eight years, so it is wonderful to know that she is in her Heavenly home.
My sister and I spent the last two nights and most of the last three days with her in the nursing home. It was not easy. But I can rest tonight knowing that I did my best to care for her and get her all the help that I could.
She lived 91 years and had a good life. Congestive heart failure brought on renal failure and nothing else could be done.
Please keep us in your prayers. It is very hard to know that she is gone. She kept her good mind until Wednesday after lunch. When I went in, I could look at her eyes and tell that something was very wrong. It was downhill from there. She went peacefully and I am thankful that I was blessed 68 years with a wonderful mother. I will miss her. I know I will see her again one day.
