Thank you for sharing your experience and the story of your loss with us. I think most of us struggle to celebrate the going home of our mommas, no matter their lives nor their pains relieved. Your writing about yours is lovely. ❤️
Thank you @JenealogyScrapbook. I appreciate your sharing about your beloved mom 💜. I know how meaningful being present at the moment of transition is for many. Yesterday was difficult but my siblings and I celebrated mom with the release of balloons, storytelling, and lots of laughter. I will share more in the coming days.
Poignant and heartbreaking! Your story brought back memories of being at my mother’s bedside in a hospital in Ferntree Gully, AU, when she passed. Years after, my siblings and I remember this day differently. Sadly they are all gone now too. I am the keeper of my family’s stories.
@Carole McCulloch I know how you feel. I’m sorry you’re the only one left to tell the family stories. Happy you have the memories to bring you joy of times past. Hope they put a smile on your face that makes the memories even more precious.

Thank you.
A beautiful story. I never got to be with my mum when she passed in her sleep at 59. I count my blessings I made it to 70.
