Guest guest Posted December 26, 2006 Report Share Posted December 26, 2006 , My condolences to you and your family. Sending you and yours strength. Courage Mum The journey has ended. My Mum, Margaret, died quietly on Christmas Day. My sisters and I discussed the fact that the " real " Margaret had died almost 2 years ago when LBD reared its ugly head. We mourned then for the loss of our mother. We mourn now the loss of her physical self. My sisters and I meet again today to plan a " celebration of her life " . Thank you all for being with us for the journey. Even when I was being quiet, I read most of the posts and received comfort from them.

Guest guest Posted December 26, 2006 Report Share Posted December 26, 2006 Hi , My heart goes out to you with the loss of your mother on Christmas Day. I understand the grieving that occurs as we lose the essence of who our loved ones were. There is still the loss to grieve of course. It sounds like you and your sisters are a good support for each other. Strength to you in the days ahead. > > The journey has ended. My Mum, Margaret, died quietly on Christmas > Day.

Guest guest Posted December 26, 2006 Report Share Posted December 26, 2006 Dear My heartfelt condolences to you and your sisters. I have an Uncle who died on Christmas Day too. A sad day to lose someone, yet you know that she is celebrating and free from the ugly Lewy disease, which makes it all seem worth it. I am so glad it was peaceful for her. I will be praying that her celebration goes exactly as you and your sisters wish it to be. Dena --- /Ed wrote: > The journey has ended. My Mum, Margaret, died > quietly on Christmas > Day.

Guest guest Posted December 26, 2006 Report Share Posted December 26, 2006 Dear My deepest condolences to you and your whole family. You paid a tribute to your Mum in this posting. We celebrated my Mom's life at her viewing. I am glad for your Mum but sad for you and your sisters. Christmas time is a hard time to lose someone.

Guest guest Posted December 26, 2006 Report Share Posted December 26, 2006 -- Please accept my deepest condolences on the passing of your Mum. It's not easy, especially this time of year... Here's hoping that the wonderful memories that you've shared will keep you strong these next few days. And it was was nice to have a " Celebration of Life " for my mom -- it made the experience more bearable. Because we were sharing happy memories, and laughter, not thinking only of the saddness that she's gone. Here's hoping the same happens to you -- that it makes these next few days a little more bearable... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 26, 2006 Report Share Posted December 26, 2006 , i am sorry that your mum has passed, and i agree with you 100% i mourned losing my father 2 years before he died when lbdstarted rearing its ugly head. i m so glad to hear taht you are planning a celebration of her life, what a way to honor her, such joy to be shared when evryone gets together and shares memories with each other. i pray that you all find peace and comfort knowing that she is no longer tormnted by lbd, and i truly believe those tht we love become our guardian angels when they leave us. take care of yourself, and your sisters too hugs, sharon m ---- /Ed wrote: The journey has ended.
