I was driving home from the market today and was thinking about the last moments I spoke to my mom, and I just broke down crying.

Guilt is the most dangerous emotion because it does not allow you to be happy, eats you from within but our deceased mothers will never want us to feel guilty. They have forgiven us, so please forgive yourself now.

Same here Virginia. I cannot wait to meet her again as well. But we can only wait and our moms would like us to reach the destination with happiness or at least content.

You said my Mom is my life, the key to my happiness.  Exactly.  

Why would God give us the most wonderful gift in the world, for us to love with all our hearts, do everything to protect, only to take it away?

I can’t wait until another lifetime.

This song means a lot to me. We will always have to say goodbye, and we have to say goodbye for the rest of our live's here on earth, but I pray that we will all feel blessed for having loved and for having been loved so much. Our mom's were a gift that we could not keep forever. And we never know why.

But don't give up. Love never dies. We won't see them again in this lifetime, but there is another one to come. And that one lasts forever.

Theresa'a first line says it best. Death is the natural conclusion to life. I can't believe for a second that God gave our mom's cancer or heart disease. Generation's pass naturally. One of my mom's doctors once told me that even if we could go our entire life without cancer or heart disease that eventually our lung capacity would diminish and that would kill us.

I think what Avi is saying is that his mother's death was beyond his control. I've seen my great grandparents, grandparents, and both parents die. That is no one's fault. There isn't one person in the world that doctors have kept alive for 200 years as an experiment. It's impossible. 

I completely agree with Theresa. My faith gets me through. Knowing that this is not the end. And that we will be with our mom's again.

Losing your mom is terrible. The day after my mom died, people try to say the right things, but they so rarely do. My aunt said, "My neighbor just lost her child. Think how horrible that would be." That would be horrible. It's all horrible, but I could not have loved my mom more if she had been my own child. My mom was my life. She was the key to my happiness. Losing one of my dogs a few months ago was horrible. I couldn't have loved that dog more. This is no contest. Losing someone that you love, including pets, is horrible. With my mom and my dog, it was all about unconditional love. You can't lose that and not be wounded, and we will always have scars. From our first heartbeat, we are on the clock. I think that we are prepared for our own death, but we will never be ready to lose the people we love most.

Every living breathing thing or being on this earth has a beginning and an end.  When the end is we do not know that or how, that is the mystery of life.  Scary sometimes, but faith gets me through each and every day.

Do I go over what I could have done differently yes of course we all do, but sometimes when someone is so ill, you do not want them in that misery any longer, as I was with my dad.  

I find that the more things I think about that I should have could have didn't do, brings me into a place of fear, uncertainty and sadness.

When they were doing CPR on my mom I heard one nurse say we have a pulse, but what no heart beat how could that be possible my mom looked like a raggedy ann doll, not breathing, maybe the pulse was from them doing CPR I would like to think, then the dr turns to me and says do you want me to continue doing this, I was like what???? omg, is she breathing he said no we are doing it for her, I said no stop please....I had to decide that on my own alone.

I ask God every single day please give me strength.

I am afraid of what comes next......in my opinion nothing is as bad as losing your mom....

Avi,

i wasn’t mad at you, just letting out anger, mad at myself and life and the world

Comment by Avi on July 7, 2018 at 8:06am

Hi virginia, 

Sorry if I my statement hurt you. I was just meant to say that sometimes it is not in my hands. Definitely, something will be the medium. It can be us, doctors or any other thing. 

Apologies if I hurt you in anyway.

What do you mean destined?  This is not how my Moms life is supposed to be. Why why why?  So who’s fault is it?  All the doctors, mine, the radiologists?  It’s all wrong!!!
