My precious mom, Sarah, died today of complications relating to her colon cancer. Her liver failed and was huge at the time of death. She was calm and peaceful at death. Initally she was agitated and waiving her arms so she was given a mild sedative. Thereafter she was calm and resting. When I last saw her on Monday she was walking and talking to my girls. I then flew 12 hours back home and was told once I landed back home on Tuesday, that she was in hospice and had massively deteriorated. I flew back last night. Once I arrived today, I spent some time reassuring her and telling her I loved her and she died.
Just 4 days after she was eating and talking, she is gone...I am in shock.
Her sufferring is over. She is now able to talk and walk and care for herself. She is clear minded and happy again. I will miss her every day of my life until my time comes.
