      Re: Bittersweet News

      Thank You everyone. I honestly don't know what to say other than that. Your thoughts are so much appreciated!

      We are all doing really well, Mom too, which warms my heart.
      It is a sad time, yes, only in that we miss Grandma. But we hold together and believe what we do and that brings us comfort.
      Pretty much the only inconsolable one is "Pearly". Grandma's kitty. She is holing herself up, but she is venturing out to visit and eat so she will be just fine.

        Ah, Em, I'm so sorry for your loss. It always hurts, even if you expect it, the moment is unexpected. I'm happy for her that your mother was with her, that's about the most beautiful way to go. Your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Give your mother as much special attention s you can, even if it's phone calls, emails, etc... This would be hardest on her I believe. She's been the closest to the situation, probably has mixed feelings of pain, relief and guilt, and also her mission of the last long time is now over. She could feel adrift along with everything else.Forgive me, I don't know your mother or family, these just seem to be normal emotions you'd feel in this situation. It's important to cherish those we still have as well as those who've passed to a better place.May your grandmother rest in peace, and may your family find peace in knowing she is at peace. Rich

        Rich, you are right. Thank you for your kind thoughts.
        Mom is in a bit of a state of euphoria she told me, and somewhat adrift, yes. For 8 years she has dedicated her life to her parents and caring for them. She is finishing up the last of the details and then after that, she and Dad just want to go out to dinner and see a movie! Something they have not been able to do in all those years.
        She is so excited, it is such a treat. I think she feels rather like how a child feels on the first day of summer vacation.
        This doesn't diminish the importance of Grandma's life any, not at all. It's all just a bit new.

        She also told me this, and I will share this with all of you...
        If you are close to someone who is recently bereaved, don't ignore them thinking they need to be alone. Call them, drop by to see them, leave a note.. anything to let them know you are thinking of them. This is so important.
        And if you know someone who's time is short, please see them or call them or write them a note.. anything.
        Just to have some contact with life and know someone is thinking of you can mean the world. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
