My beautiful and loving mother passed away on march 18

Postby ko1300cc » Fri Mar 21, 2014 9:42 am

Just wanted to let the community know my mom passed away on march 18,2014. She fought so hard for 2 years, went through gruesome treatments, hipec, herbs supplements, everything she possibly could. She was 46 years old. In a way I am relieved she is no longer in any pain and finally in peace. Thank you guys for support for the past two years. You have all been a major help and offered guidance through her journey. God bless you all and good luck with your separate journeys.

I am so sorry to hear this. I thought I last read she was doing well except for a possible lymph node. I hate to hear news like this. I send you my best and know how hard it is. I lost my mom when she was 55 and miss her every day. I was recently directed to a book titled Proof of Heaven. It helps comfort me a bit.

So sorry for your loss, may her love accompany you in each step of your life. She was surely comforted in her journey by you being at her side, and protected by your love. Blessings back at you, for these days and your upcoming days.

I am so sorry for your loss. I have two sons, 27 and 29 years old. We recently just lost their father to cancer five months ago. It is true that it is a relief that they are no longer going through the pain and suffering the cancer brings them. And, although you will greatly miss your mother, know that she is still always with you watching over you and loving you as always. Be sure to allow yourself to mourn. Don't hold things back, trying to be strong. Speak of your memories and love for her. We still laugh and cry as we talk about their Dad together. I know your mom is up there watching and missing you too.
