Thursday night, Mom had changed. Her breathing was more difficult, her respiratory rate increased, and she physically looked more gone than here. I asked that the doctor-ordered PRN morphine be given regularly to keep her comfortable.
Friday, 8:50 am, my mom was set free. She leaves a huge hole in my heart, I am lost, but so relieved that she is no longer suffering. It’s over.
I Love You Mom.
Oh, I am so sorrow for your loss. Mothers are so precious to us and I know you will miss her forever. My mom died with dementia 13 years ago and I am still grieving. I know your Mom is free from pain, suffering, and dementia now and that is a blessing. I go tomorrow to make funeral arrangements for my brother, and I know you must do the same for your Mom. Hugs and love and prayers for your family. I have tears in my eyes as I write this – for your loss and the sorrow it brings. God bless you and your family.

Lizzie, just wanted to let you know that I’m thinking of you. Thank you for your kind thoughts. Even when it’s expected, it’s very difficult.
