| [Serious] It's over.
At 10:55 A.M. my Mom died at home. She was 80 years old. She had just come out of the Hospital 3 weeks ago when she complained of chest pains, and the cardiologist said two heart valves weren't opening/closing right Sometimes they would open, and sometimes they would almost shut completely closed.
Well they evidently closed completely and she at least went quickly & without pain, with the people she loved around her.
At least she isn't in pain anymore and free of Alzheimer's now. 
At least the hospice people have been a big help to me & my brother. -- I'm Forever Folding For Team Helix Autism Speaks, Please Listen! |

| reply to Santa Fe And if your wondering about the posting tag, it was clear outside till just after it happened, then some clouds passed over, and it started to sprinkle a little.
Seemed like an omen to me, so I thought up what I'm using. -- I'm Forever Folding For Team Helix Autism Speaks, Please Listen! |

| reply to Santa Fe I'm sorry your mom died. Losing a parent, especially one you're close to, is awfully hard. At least from what you describe the end may have been peaceful for her. Being around people you love ---- there's very little in life that's better. Maybe nothing. said by Santa Fe :Well they evidently closed completely and she at least went quickly & without pain, with the people she loved around her. -- this is serious |

| reply to Santa Fe Sincere condolences. Saying goodbye is hard. My mom and dad have been gone years now.
Alzheimer's likely felt like the goodbyes were a sad early progression  At least she is at peace now. Prayers for your family. |
