Hello Friends,
I've tried to write this post so many times.
If you've been following my blog, you know that I've been my Mom's caregiver for many years and that she's had complex medical issues. We were able to keep her medical issues stable for a very long time, but things started changing last fall. My Mom was hospitalized again in late January. Her heart and kidneys were failing and my Mom decided she was done fighting.
My mom passed away peacefully on February 4, 2026.
I am so sad and heartbroken. She suffered so much the last three months and I feel that I didn't do enough to ease her suffering.
I am still recovering from my severe illness. It is hard to believe that I couldn't stand or walk a year ago. I've accomplished a lot, but still have a long recovery ahead.
Hug your loved ones and let them know how much they mean to you.
Sending you gentle hugs as you mourn your dear mother, Pam. I think saying goodbye to a mother is one of the hardest things we ever have to deal with in life. I'm sure she knew that you did your very best to care for her. I'm pleased to read that you are coming along with your own recovery and wish you peace and strength in the days ahead. My mom has been gone 5 1/2 years now and I still miss her each and every day... Sending hugs and prayers your way. ♥
ReplyDeletePam, I am sorry about your precious Mom's passing. Thinking of you and your family.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry for your loss. I know the caregiver guilt and post-caregiver syndrome. It takes some time to accept that we could never take it all away for them. I am still amazed at what you've endured and hope your recovery will be complete in the near future.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry , always such sadness when a loved one passes.
