((((((((((((((((((( Patty & Mom )))))))))))))))))))

I was with my dear aunty a year ago when she passed. She did not go easily (I think her mind was there, but her body just held on). I'm so very happy you got a response from your mom when you told her you loved her. I'm sure it warmed your heart and hers too.

No matter if she responds to you or not.....keep talking to her, keep holding her hand....help her bridge from here to there with love and compassion. It will not only mean the world to her, but to you as well. I did the same for my mum when she passed 26 years ago. To this day I am so grateful that I had the opportunity to hold her hand when she went to eternal sleep.

I am so sorry for the pain your mom is in. It's a terrible and difficult thing to watch. Know that you are doing everything within your power to make her as comfortable as you can. She knows this .... she does!

*Gentle Hugs*
