My Mom Went To Heaven This Morning

Mom came home from the hospital yesterday afternoon. It felt really good to have her back here even though it would not be for long. Shortly after she arrived one of the hospice nurses stopped over to bring all of the meds she would need and instructed me about my duties.
As we were talking, Mom's breathing became a bit labored. We administered comfort measures and she relaxed a bit. The trip from the hospital in the ambulance back home must have been a bit disturbing for her. Later in the evening the labored breathing began again and this time I became alarmed. The last thing I wanted was for her to suffer. The nurse checked on her and told me it may not be much longer.

Mom passed at 4:38 this morning. She left my arms into the arms of the One who will provide her eternal comfort. My husband told me that she was just waiting to come back home to her own room, her own family and to Bentley too who stayed by her side before she felt free to let go.
My heartfelt thanks to all of you who left comments of support and prayers for me. Also to those of you who sent loving emails. You all were so kind to support me and provide the loving encouragement to help me get through what has been a very tough week.
My Mom and Daddy are back together once again. There will never be a day that goes by when I will not miss them both, yet I have comfort knowing that their eternal life in His presence is their new home.
With Love, Susan and Bentley
