Hello dear friends. I am so overwhelmed by your kindness and love. This is so hard. Tomorrow we have to go for a viewing at the funeral home and I can't stand the thought of seeing my mom in a casket. It will be another blow. I was just down at her house looking at all her earthly treasures...remembering and crying...and wanting to go back to those days. Her funeral is Wednesday morn at 11.

I got a call today from the floral shop where we ordered mom's flowers for the funeral. The lady said she had a beautiful bouquet there for me from my YT friends. You are so very good to me and I'm so touched. The lady asked if I wanted them to deliver it to me, or to the funeral home. I asked her to deliver it to the funeral home so they will be displayed there and at the funeral and then I will bring it home with me. I know it will be so beautiful and I thank each and every one of you for your generosity and love. Thank you so VERY much! I will take a picture of the flowers and post it on YT!

I probably haven't mentioned this, but even though my mom didn't have the internet, she was always up to date on what was happening on YT. I would always tell her if someone needed prayers and I remember a couple of times we cried together on the phone talking about a sick yorkie or YT'er. Mom had a heart of gold...she had such love and empathy for everyone and her heart broke when she heard of people's trials and tribulations. She never thought of herself...just everyone else, be it family or stranger.

It is going to be frigid cold the day of the funeral. I wonder if this weather will ever warm up.

I took Maddie to Mom's tonight and I guess Maddie must have understood when I told her Grandma died, because she wasn't excited about getting into the house and once in, she didn't go running looking for her as she always did.

Oh man oh man...this is so hard. Thanks everyone! Love you and appreciate you so. I want to print out this thread and keep it always. Does anyone know...is there a way to print it out without getting all the other stuff? I guess even if I use up a cartridge of ink, it would be worth it to have this on paper.

This is the song I had in my head the last 2 days my mom was alive...I know it's a love song meant for a couple who are splitting, but the chorus was all I knew...and it just came into my head.

Tell me how am I supposed to live without you
Now that I've been lovin' you so long
How am I supposed to live without you
How am I supposed to carry on
When all that I've been livin' for is gone

sweetr72 · 02-05-2007, 08:36 PM

Ohhhh Connie you have me in tears...I dont want to imagine going through what you are..although we all have to deal with it someday..I dont think we ever think our mommies will be gone..you made me appreciate my mom a little bit more..as sometimes I take for granted how lucky I am to have her here even though we dont always see eye to eye...

You have been in my thoughts and prayers and will remain there!!

Connie, I cannot begin to imagine what you are going through but I pray that HE will guide you and help you and your family through this terrible time....

Our prayers are with you...

Connie - I just wanted to say how sorry I am for you. May God give you strength to hold on and strength to let go. Just remember that your Mother's Love will always be alive inside of you.

Shadow · 02-05-2007, 09:34 PM

Connie, I will be thinking of you during the difficult days ahead.

(Connie-There's two versions that I've heard this by. One is Trisha Yearwood and the other is Leann Rimes. I'll try and see if I can get it for you and send you the link.)

Dear, Dear Connie;
When you told me about your mom passing away, it was all I could do to not break down and cry my eyes out. She was such a special person for all of us here to feel the way about her as we all do. I know most of us never even met her, but somehow, she reached all of us. I also know the reason we all felt the way we do about her is because of your love and admiration for her. I think it made a lot of people stop and think about how we felt about our own mom's. I thank you for letting me into your life.
Love,
Suz

baileysmom31 · 02-05-2007, 11:08 PM

Oh Connie, I am so sorry to hear that your Mom passed away. I have a special box all packed up. I was going to get it to you but time was short... maybe even better, once the weather will cooperate, I'll be able to get down to you and deliver it in person. Hang on my friend, and know my prayers are going to you you during this time! Big

chattiesmom · 02-05-2007, 11:38 PM

Connie -- I am so very sorry for your loss. I know from reading your threads that you were so very close to your Mom, believe me, you are very blessed to have had this relationship. Losing someone you are close with hurts so very much, but she has left you with a legacy of love that will last through eternity.

For now you must cry and grieve but in time you will begin to remember your dear sweet mother with smiles and laughter. Along with a multitude of your YT family I will hold you and your entire family close to my heart and keep you in my prayers.

ldenise · 02-11-2007, 06:15 PM

connie, I am just now reading this. I am so very sorry. I know how hard it is when a mother passes. My mother was like an angel on earth too. gentle hugs and prayers to you.
