The first time my mom came to have lunch with me at work, my boss was in awe of how beautiful she was; not just because of her looks but because of her smile, it radiates peace and joy. She has really come to terms with her sickness through the grace of God. It's incredible to see how much she enjoys the simple things in life.
A couple weeks ago, my dad turned 60. It was a Monday, his day off. He and my mom had breakfast together under their covered porch, which overlooks a state park. It started raining as the drank their coffee, and the air was perfect. They sat out there and just talked for a while. My mom told my dad that was God's little gift to him on his birthday. It makes me smile to think of those two old lovebirds taking it all in.

tank, sorry to hear that my friend. God bless you and your family.
My own mom is living with a rare terminal disease called Wegener's. She's had it for 10 years. Sometimes she's totally fine for a year or two, and then gets wiped out...basically what happens w/ Wegener's is one's immune system goes haywire and starts attacking healthy parts of the body. It can manifest itself anywhere and look like a myriad other problems. Eventually it will kill her; it's not a matter of if, but rather when.
I just hope she has enough time to get to know her first grandson. At this point she's OK but you never know.

watch "Thin Red Line" -- every bird in the movie indicates a soul... it will make you feel really good inside.

Sorry to hear. All the best to you and your family.
Her presence will live on through your memories of her and the little things that your family has picked up from her along the way.

Thanks for the kind words, she was the best.
The last weeks for her where hell, slipping away more and more
so she chose for her own end. For me she is the bravest person.
Still smiling in the brink of defeat, even the last weeks in the hospital all the nurses became her friends, that was her biggest quality, a true giver and everybody immediately loved her.

i am so sorry tank. from the way you speak of her, it sounds like she was one of the most wonderful mothers.
to share a random story... my mom taught me how to cook when i was leaving for college. that entire summer before i left, she'd ask me to help with cooking so i could learn. needless to say i never paid attention. but once in college, tired of eating shit food -- one day i called my mom and told her how i should've paid more attention when was she trying to teach me. that day she stayed on the phone with me telling me what to do while i cooked. for some reason it is one of my fondest memories from back in the day. years later, i am a fairly decent cook.
