My 74 year old mom has raised 5 children and lived a life of love and dedication to God and family. Mom went for vascular surgery on her legs to increase blood flow that the diabetes has restricted. My mom has been an organist and choir director for 60 years never missing a Sunday in all those years. I learned what true love and dedication is from mom. Mom is the kind of lady that is the personification of what God wants us to be, and in my mind is truly a Saint. I never heard her talk bad about anyone regardless of their color, race or religion. Mom taught me that forgiveness makes you stronger, kindness and generosity make you happier and family makes you complete. A more sweet and loving person I've never known.
Mom has taken a turn for the worse since I saw her Friday afternoon and is being moved to ICU since mom isn't "waking up". I'm afraid that I'm having to say goodbye to the person I have loved more than anything and my mom is responsible for all the good things about me. My dad has been the most patient and helpful caregiver, proving that he meant it when 50 years ago he promised "in sickness and in health".
If you could say a prayer or offer any good thoughts for my Mom and my Dad I would appreciate it.

Thanks guys! It really means a lot to me!
Mom taught me that's it's okay to cry and I'm thinking that her advice will be useful to me right now.

A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”

you and your mother have my prayers... I hope you and her find peace.

Prayers sent from NC. Remember that when she does go, as my Mother has, and your Mom sounds just like my Mom, that she will be in paradise and you will join her one sweet day.
