My mother passed on to the other side last night. She is so much of who I am. She loved me with everything she had and believed in me and made me believe in myself and that I could do anything.
Her life long ailments had grown to a point that she could no longer endure. She had lost the ability to walk after her stroke just over four years ago, and in the last several months she had slowly lost her appetite. Over the next three months she was in the hospital, a rehabilitation facility nearby, and finally hospice care at home.
We all know that we don't get to stay here forever, but it's so hard to believe that it is really happening when the time comes for a loved one to leave. I thought that this was some kind of problem that I could solve, something that I could fix. I wanted so badly to make her better, and we did everything we could to help her, but it was never going to be enough. My heart aches.
This is my business page, but I share this here because everything is personal to me, my work, the projects, the relationships, it is all an extension of myself and I need anyone reading this to know that, and I want you to know what an amazing woman my mother is.
We love you so much Mom. I'm sorry for all the pain you had to endure. Thank you for everything you did for us. You loved us with your whole heart. I know you're in a better place now, a place with no pain where you can watch over us with all of our loved ones on the other side.
