February 3, 2003

I got a call from the hospital in the middle of the night from a nice nurse telling that my mom had died peacefully in her sleep.  I think that there is a class in that middle of the nightcall because the nurse who called me about daddy said the exact same thing.  Mom had been in a coma for over a month and was not going to get better and it was here time.  And I had told her the day before it was ok if she was tired and didn't want to fight anymore.  It still hurt beyond reason.

The years have eased the pain.  The good memories take over.  I know how lucky I am to have the mom I had.  She was a simple woman who loved her family and her simple life.  She could be counted on by everyone who knew her.  I miss her.
