She kept telling us at the end she just wanted to go see Jesus. <3 I know she is pain free now and no longer suffering but I still need my mama. I have an amazing relationship with my mother in law but it still isn't the same.One day at a time right?  One day at a time.
I spent some time at her house before I left going through some photos and random boxes in the basement. It felt weird being in an empty house...I expected her to walk in. My dad came by and we had a moment talking and remembering her. I found some middle school scrapbooks that she had made. She met my dad in 7th grade and they started dating. She kept slurpie cups from when they would go get them at 7-Eleven. He was shocked she had kept them all. There are so many little things she kept from her childhood. My siblings will probably want to throw it all away. I just hope they don't and wait for me to clean out her house. |
Thank you so much for updating us! I know my Mama said she was ready to go many times. In fact, one Saturday when she woke up, she declared it was the day she was leaving us. Note: It didn't happen that day.
Continuing to pray for you as you walk down this road.
