It is with great saddness that i inform you all that mom passed july 8 th at 9:45 pm. The hospice nurses have been giving her 2 or 3 days for 4 to 6 weeks and she fought it till the bitter end. She had went 28 days(4 wks) with no food and 4 days with no water and I swear to you she fought 4 mins. for that last breath.I didnt post much I know as I was her sole caregiver but you all helped me by reading more than you will ever know.Thank you all for you wisdom and advice. her funeral was beautiful and she was as well.God bless you all and please keep fighting this monster and don't give up.My mom was one of the strongest women I have ever known in my life. You can beat this thing !!!! Mom's was just to far gone from the time of her Dx.Take care one and all and my prayers are always with you.........Hugs,Lynne

    Hi Lynne. I am so sorry that your mum has been taken by this horrid disease. I am also distressed that so many people have been struck down when this cancer is discovered in it's late stage. Please accept our deepest sympathies. Ross and Jen in oz.

  • Words seem so futile at a time like this but know that our hearts and prayers are with you. It comforted me quite a bit when I lost my mom to know that.

    Dear Lynne,

    I am very sorry for your loss. Please find comfort in that your mother is in the much better place now and is free from suffering.

    It is very difficult for you now but the time will heal. She will be with you always and one day you will meet again.

    God Bless.

    As I've said before (sigh, too many times for my liking) She has not gone, just moved from in front of your eyes, into your heart...where she will live on forever.
    Look behind you, Lynne...see that feather on the floor? It's from your REAL wings...
    Please keep coming here...we are all family...
    Hugs, Kathi

    Hi Lynne,
    I'm so sorry about your mom. I know exactly how you feel as I lost my mom in March and your post reminded me so much of her. I'm sure in the midst of all of your sadness you must be very proud of her. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
