She passed away early this morning. The past 2 days she had lots of trouble with her breathing- and really everything.

Hospice was wonderful of course and came in and took care of everything.

We are leaving to make the final arrangements in a few minutes.We are hoping to have the funeral Thursday.

Thanks for all your prayers for my family and my Mom.

saving a special clematis
Q
Comments (2)
It's very unlikely that spraying a fungicide will help, as I doubt it's a fungus. Clematis often lost their bottom leaves to brown/dryness. Have you ever just let it happen? It could be that you'd just lose a few lower leaves, and that the spray is causing the damage. That being said, it could also be clematis wilt. When did you transplant this? If it was in the past 2 or 3 years, it's still getting established, and sometimes they wilt, especially the type 2's. In which case, you can cut back any affected stems and keep what's left (even if it's nothing above ground) moist. It will come back.

My Mom Passed Away
Q
Comments (18)
Tara, it is just amazing how I can relate to your story as well. I was in Philadelphia on campus when I got a call from my sister at right about 5:00PM when she notified me of my mom's passing. And recently, I have been spending most of my time with my good friend who is also a Christian. I asked him how to convert someone into Christian if there's no "legitimate proof" that a non-christian would believe in. He told me that the proof is clear and its everywhere..it's just that we fail to recognize them. Well, I'm guessing 5:00PM is good! I'm not sure if I'm making any sense right now, but I believe that all of our moms are having a wonderful time right now, especially since we all have faith in Him. I think the best way to interpret the reason behind our mothers' early departure is to bring us closer to Him. I just read a verse in the Bible last night and it says that if you are able to give up anything for Him, even a family member, you will find eternal happiness in Heaven. My mom's passing reminds me of how much she loved me. Sacrifice is love I heard...how Son of God died for our sins. If I didn't have faith..I probably would have gone crazy. The more I try to understand Him, the less painful it gets. I know..it's hard to keep up with all of the prayers everyday...but try to think more about God and try to appreciate everything that has happened. Appreciate even the smallest thing, like a nice weather you know... It sounds crazy, I know, but everything really happens for the good of us. I wish I knew the exact answer to this but I'm sure He is putting us through such testimony to make us into someone better. Remember that we only have one chance in life... so make the best out of it to serve Him. And start going to church if you havn't....I have been really good about going to church since my mom's passing, but every week, I learn something new and something relevant. For example...we had an Easter prayer meeting last Friday and the pastor reminded us about His love and to love one another like how He loves us. He also mentioned to ask forgiveness (to someone you know...ie friends) if you did something wrong in the past. The following day, I was on AIM and saw my very first GF online. I told her I was sorry for what happened before and she actually said "it's okay it's past." It is just crazy...for EIGHT years, she has not said a word to me and has been ignoring me since I tried to talk to her after the breakup (I was a jerk...). I felt 100x better than what I was after being forgiven...So I strongly encourage everyone to keep their faith strong and try to go to church regularly. Going to Heaven is not all about going to church though...it's about your personal relations with God. I hope everyone is doing well and please KIT! This forum is also very helpful for me as well... GL with everyone!!!

Fairlight, what a beautiful way of expressing your Mother. What a good daughter you were to her. My sincere condolences to you. My Mom has been from this earth 26 years, and I still miss her. But what she taught me, I hold dear. Jan

My mom passed away on November 30th...

Instead of intubating my mother on Thursday, we asked the doctors to give her something to at a least help her calm down...they administered a morphine drip...she passed away on Friday morning at 11:30 am. (throughout my mother's numerous hospitalizations, I called the hospital nurses' station to ask about her progress because I was normally caring for her at home; my body clock automatically had me up at specific hours throughtout the night because i would be checking on my mom's oxygen levels, or making sure that she ate to prevent nausea.

Even though a loved one has pain and difficulties near rhe end, it is so hard to have that loved person go.

I pray that your family may find peace of heart as you remember her and mourn together.

Nan, sorry to hear about your loss. My mom died six years ago and nary a day goes by that I don't think about her. I like to think our Moms become our guardian angels and that our relationships with them aren't ended by death, but only changed.
