      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.
