About Me:
I am an almost 50 year old mom of 7 and grandmother of 6
About my Loss:
I lost my mom on Jan 14, 2010. Its almost a year since she passed away. Thanksgiving was so hard for us since last year she made a trip from Florida to NY just to spend it with us. Then we had to endure our first Christmas without her and now New Years Eve. Though mom moved to Florida six years ago just not hearing the sound of her voice on New Years Eve via telephone was so heartbreaking. My mom was 77 years of age. She spent her entire life like the energizer bunny. The last four years she began to deteriorate due to her scoliosis that was never treated as a child. Four years ago she spent almost 9 months in bed because of unbearable pain, she walked with the assistance of a cane. She had great faith my mom. She prayed and prayed that she would walk again and she did. Then the following year since her spine was begining to crush her lung she spent 6 months hooked up to an oxygen tank. She prayed and prayed and she was able to breath without the oxygen again. Then two bouts of pneumonia and mom once again recovered. She was frail and in constant pain. She walked with a walker but she was still my spunky mom. In January she was admitted with stomach pains and ten days later she died in my arms because of a blockage in her duct that went undetected. By the time they discovered it mom was dying. The did emergency surgery. Mom had septic shock. They removed her colon, some of her intestine. They gutted mom like a fish. It was too much for mom so my brother decided to remove her respirator because mom was dying before our eyes. I feel I let her die and I just wish I could erase those two weeks last january and do things differently, then maybe mom would still be with me..........
