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.

I wish i had more to say to you. more words that may offer condolence.
though i don't know you or your mother, i feel a certain connection in having heard about this for the past few months and having seen her beautiful face in those wonderful photographs. Bless you for taking the time to capture those memories and account for them here. we are all witness to her now, and therefore she will live on forever in your personal experiences and love, and in our minds as well. thank you so much for sharing with us in what was likely the hardest span of your life to date.
so sincere, so beautiful.
Bless her now, and now that she is in a better place away from pain and suffering.
all my best. all my thoughts and prayers.

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.

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.

I'm so sorry to hear of your Mother's passing, tank. I know you're nothing short of heart broken right now. Tears stream down my cheeks as I type this. I lost my Mom nearly 9 years ago. I wish I had some magic advice, but I don't. You loved her. She loved you. She's not hurting now. You are probably hurting more than ever. Embrace those around you. Share stories, happy and sad. Laugh through tears. Toast the best of times.

Your mom is smiling upon you now.

I normally dont do this on boards, but since we all exchange experiences here mine.
My dad died last year because of cancer. he was my best friend, and a very funny man. I miss him every day..so for those who still have both their parents; invest/enjoy time being with them, while they are still around.
