Mom

[sisbarn70]

4years ago tomorrow I had to make the call to take my mom off life support after a long weekend of unresponsiveness due to a stroke. I am lucky the neurologist who pronounced her brain dead was a Christian, somehow that made things less painful. I find that with each passing year it is easier to remember her as she was before that weekend. And I am confident that she is in a better place now free from pain and worry. So I will admit that I miss her while always remembering her love for me, and mine for her.

I lost my mother 24 years ago, sisbarn, and can only imagine how fresh the loss may still seem to you. You made the right decision, never doubt it. You were blessed with a Christian doctor to help you make this decision. Long before mother became ill, she made me swear not to prolong her life; she didn't "want to be a burden", and wanted to preserve her dignity. In the end, we all want to be allowed to slip away with peace and dignity, and join our Heavenly Father. Blessings and care to you.
