    My mom died on Wednesday, February 22, 2012.  I can't believe it.  I really don't know what else to say.  My mom is gone.

      I am so sorry to hear about your mom.  She had been through so much, as have you.  I know how hard it is to lose your mom, and I hope you can find peace in your memories of wonderful times with her.  Take care.

      I am so sorry.  I know – there are sometimes no more words, especially after a fight laced with hope and devastation.

      I am so sorry to hear about your Mom.  You and your family will be in my prayers.  Find comfort in your memories of things you and your Mom did and keep her close to your heart.  Losing a Mom is a hard thing to do.

      You have joined the sad ranks of "Motherless Daughters".  You will always miss her and missing her is an honor to your relationship.  Never a day goes by that I don't want to tell my Mother something about this or that, but I tell her in my heart.  I had a good grief counselor from hospice, then group.  Hope you will find your path to peace and acceptance.

      I'm sure that you were as lucky to have had your Mom as she was to have had you.  You did all that you could for her.  While you and your loved ones are and will be in pain, be glad that Mom's pain and fears are gone.  Dwell on the joys that you shared and share them with other loved  one.  Her life  is gone from this earth, but your Mom will be here as long as she is fondly rememberd by y'all.

      I am so sorry that you have lost your mother.

      I have lost my father, a brother and my Mother. By far for me, that one was the most difficult. The relationship you have is so intimate. All the nurturing she has given over your life and then all the love, care and nurturing you have given her. It's a special bond. My heart goes out to you.
