Wow, I am so sorry for all you are going through right now. It seems that your mom is getting the care that she needs at this point and for that I would be thankful. I just hope everything will go well for your daughter and that she is getting all the help that she needs as well. I will keep you all in my thoughts and remember to take care of yourself.

I feel your pain, it must be so hard for you and your daughter plus the whole family. I will keep your daughter and Mom in my prayers.

I'm so sorry that your family is struggling!

Take good care of yourself even if you are feeling very badly. Eat well and nap if you can't sleep through the night. Lots of hugging with your family. Those things work for me, hopefully for you too.

Big hugs over the airwaves to you and your family!

I am so sorry, Michele. Your mother knows in her very bones how much you love her. She has been a handful, I know, but even a difficult person knows when she is loved and cared for. Time on your deathbed is not the same as time normally from what I have seen, between the drugs and the decline life is compressed and dialated all together. Your mother knows you are with her, if you ask me.

As for your daughter, health problems with children are the worst. I pray for your daughter, your whole family, to have the best outcome. It is so hard to cope with illness and uncertainty, know you are in my prayers. Trust in God's love to carry you through the harshness of this time.

Je t'embrasse très fort!

Thank you to everyone I can’t tell you how much it means

Merci…

Sending you lots of prayers and love during this time.

Am adding you and yours to my prayer list.

Praying for many blessings for you and your family, Michele. I'm so sorry you and your family are going through a very bad time right now, and I hope things will get better soon. I didn't get to be with my mother when she passed and I know how you're feeling. There are times when we are faced with very difficult things, and I hope that time for you is over very soon.

I believe the same as Zalco, God will carry you through this storm, and the sun will shine brightly in your life again.

I am praying for you & your precious family. It's so hard to feel so helpless. Take care.

I'm sorry that you and your family are having a difficult time and overwhelming situations. Sending my best wishes that things resolve and life returns to a calmer level. I agree with those who say that your mother would wish for you to focus on your daughter at this time. Take care. ((((Michele))))

So many beautiful sentiments above. Adding my prayers and hopes for a peaceful passing for your mom. Hospice really is the best care you can give at this time.

When times seem overwhelming, I will play this. Prayers to you.

((((Michele))))

That is alot to deal with ... hang in there, Michele!

I believe you are already doing all you can. Your mother is in a good place. Your daughter will receive the care she needs, and she has the support of her husband and *you*.

I hope you can breathe and becalm yourself -- for your own sake, and to be able to give -- and take -- solace within your family. One day, one hour at a time, we survive the perils and go forward. Wishing you peace.

Oh man you are really going thru it right now. I'm very sorry abt your mom. Hospice is a wonderful group, they will keep her comfortable. I will absolutely pray for good news for your grandchild. Please update us if and when you can or want to. And take care of yourself also.

You are going thru very bad times right now. I can see how you are torn but your mother will certainly understand. I am sending positive thoughts and hopes that all will turn out well for you and your family. Take care, Michele.

The wagons are circling. Please know you are not alone and that we are here for you 24/7.

I will be keeping you, your mom and your daughter in my thoughts.

Sending positive energy to support you through the days ahead.

I'm so sorry to learn of the difficulties you and your family have been facing. Try not to stress too much about whether you can make it in time to be with your mother, as wanting to be there and being able to, are not always both possible. But Hospice workers are angels, and I know that even in your absence, she will pass in a very loving and peaceful environment. Your mother may not actually be aware of who is there, but will just feel comforted. My thoughts and prayers for all the things you have mentioned, are being sent to you and your family at this time,

Your life sounds overwhelming right now. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Prayers. Prayers work. Praying for peace for your Mom, your, daughter, and YOU!

I love Ded's reply and totally agree. I will be hoping that follow-up tests offer better news.

My heart goes out to you and I wish you all solace.

My sister held the phone to my Mom’s ear yesterday….finally She seems reluctant and considered it only after the weekend hospice nurse suggested it. Whether she can hear or not doesn‘t matter. My sister seems reluctant

Even my brother seems to not get it.

The major move happened over the weekend They still have a few little things there…. have till 31st..

Daughter’s appointment is today Thankfully son-in-law had arranged to have today for the move Army isn’t flexible about things (national guard)

They also don’t consider wife’s grandmother’s death to be eligible for day off there

Hopefully it will work out for a Friday wake (he’ll come after work) Saturday funeral?

I don’t spend my days weeping and wailing, but I cried once, wondering if she understands (probably not) why we can’t all be there by her side, holding her hand and comforting her.

I started crying a second time as I was sitting on the floor watching my husband play with our 20 month old grandson. The profound love we have for him, made me think of the love felt for my mother. All my cousins in France are waiting with us My two lifetime friends love her dearly Her old neighbors…

That sweet child came to give me a hug! He never sees me cry. I couldn’t get over that

((Michele)) - your grandson showed you that love goes on. It never ends. I think your mother knows that too. Tough times ... but keep hanging in ....

Thanks to everyone for the support 🙏🏽❤️

(((((((( Michele )))))))))

(((((Michele))))).

Sending healing thoughts your DD's way. Glad your daughter has her DH for support.

Too bad family isn't defined by the people instead of by the National guard.

I'm glad that you were able to say words to your mother. I'm sure she knows that you are full of love for her and I'm sure she understands that it is difficult for you. She's a mother and understands her children have to do what they need to do.

Michele, you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. From my own experience, many dying people can still hear and understand very well, so you could tell her on the phone whatever on your mind and your mom would understand, even though she may not be able to reply. Hearing your voice would give her great comfort and peace of mind. I’m glad you talked with her. Hope y’all stay strong and healthy to get through this difficult time. It shall pass.

Michelle, you've been in my thoughts, and I'm sending you good wishes.

So sorry. Meditate, pray, glass of wine.

My Mom died yesterday.

The plan was another call after the hospice visit…

I feel numb. Relieved too.

I still have some calls I didn’t get to make yesterday. I wanted to tell my three kids first. Of course, when my D1 came here with son-in-law after appointment, we let them talk first.

(In a nutshell, next week, more testing. Somewhat relieved, but not really)

Thought I’d sleep better I’ve been awake since 2ish… I just need to adjust

((((Hugs))))

Michele, I’m so sorry.

Wishing you good memories of her.

Michele, I'm so sorry.

((Michele))

Oh, Michele, I am so terribly sorry. Losing your mother is hard, no matter how much of a relief it is as well. Sending you my most sincere condolences and continued prayers for you and your whole family.

Michele, I am so sorry about your Mother. I pray for peace for you as you await further testing for your daughter....not an easy time, I know.

Michele, I'm so sorry. Prayers for you and your family.

Michelle, I'm very sorry to hear that your Mother has passed away. Condolences to you and your family.

Condolences from me as well, Michele. It's so hard saying goodbye to one's mother. After my mom passed, I felt untethered from the world - like a boat that has lost an anchor. I was fortunate to be in the room and was the one holding the phone to her ear so family far away could say last goodbyes. Both my sisters were unable to be there and suffered greatly because of that. It's a bit sad your sister showed reluctance to do so; it's so important.

Wishing you and your family peace and solace.

Michele, I am so sorry and send my sympathy.

What multiplied troubling problems you're having Michelle.

My heart goes out to you.

I'm thankful that you were able to talk to you mother near the end of her life here.

I hope that your daughter's pregnancy goes well and is part of the next news.

I trust that the strong training and experience through your life will carry you through this difficult time, supported by loved ones and friends. May your heart be blessed throughout.

I send good wishes and offer prayers for you and your family.

ole

Michele, I’m so sorry for your loss of your mother. May her memory be a blessing.

Thank you, thank you, thank you

Michelle, so sorry for your loss of your mother. I am glad you were able to speak to her on the phone as it was important to you and will always give you peace. My hope is for your daughter’s pregnancy to go well from now on.

Im sure your mother is at peace, but we are never ready to say goodbye to our parents.

i hope your daughter gets good news. Hugs.

(((((((Michele.)))))))

I'm so sorry. I understand the mixed emotions. We hate to see our family in pain but miss them so when they go.

Still sending good thoughts for your daughter and her DH. I hope the time goes quickly. Waiting is difficult!

Michele I am so sorry for the loss of your mother. It's tough to deal with regardless of time or distance. It's nice to have a young one with you to keep you company and to remind you of the future.

Michele, you are in my thoughts and prayers. Pal is right about your mom being able to hear you. Very ill, fading people can sense others around them and I’m sure it is comforting. I wish we could carry some of your burden and heartache. I hope sharing with us and hearing our support and love helps comfort you. You are strong and you will see this overwhelming distress ebb. It is enormous, for sure.

Lots of love and solace.

Thinking of you and your daughter. Sending hugs and prayers.
