HC ((((evaclear04))))?
HC I know where you're coming from?
HC I watched my grandmother suffer the last 10 months of her life in the hospital...literally never being discharged?
HC the day she died was the longest and most painful day of my life?
HC it hurt even more to watch my grandfather grieve?
HC they had been married 53 years?
HC after her death, my grandfather received a bill of over 500K for her hospital stay?
HC he knew he wouldn't be able to ever pay it off and in addition to grieving, was stressed about this bill?
HC when my grandfather called the hospital to make the arrangements the administrator said my grandmother was an inspiration to the staff?
HC he said that everyone at the hospital grew to know and love my grandmother?
HC they also told us we should realize how much my grandmother loved us, because she should have died when she got there?
HC God knew I and my family likely couldn't have bared her sudden death so he allowed us time to prepare?
HC we all know God doesn't put more on us that we can bare?
HC the hospital said "NO CHARGE" and wiped the slate clean?
HC I can almost cry just thinking about it?
HC I just had a baby and see my grandmother in him EVERYDAY?!
HC I say all of that to say God knows your pain and has ways of bringing you comfort...just lean on HIM?
HC I know it's cliche' but earth TRULY has no sorrow that heaven can not heal?
HC you should spend your mom's birthday WITH her...in your thoughts and in your heart?
HC I'm interceding for you in prayer as we speak?
HC make sure you also pray to HIM and ask him to supply you with all you need to make it through this time?
HC to borrow a phrase from "Liquid Prayer" by Natalie Wilson and SOP Chorale - "Hold On...know that everytime you cry HE'S healing you inside"?

HC that just made me cry?
HC what a testimony?

evaclear04 01-24-2006 02:16 AM

HC I truly thank all of you for your post.
HC Everytime I look at both my boys I know I am looking at her.
My mother was all i had for a long time. It had been only me and her for all my life. After her divorce she never once dated...because being a strong mother and women example for me was more important to her.
My mother was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma July 04'. She had no clue. She was never sick and always on the go. All of sudden she started having shoulder pains and then couldn't move it at all. When they performed an MRI she had cancer everywhere. They rushed her to Moffit Cancer Center (and excellent hospital) and she was there for a month. When they first admitted her they couldn't even believe that she was walking...the calcium in her blood was so high that her heart should have stopped.
She was only 56 and spent her birthday undergoing a Bone Marrow transplant.
She had more faith than I could ever imagine. Because even in the midst of it all she never doubted or questioned HIM. She battled this thing for two weeks shy of a year.
She was actually considered in remission two weeks before she passed away. We just knew she had beaten it. And then before we knew ....we were right back where we started...and they told us that nothing this time would work. It had gotten too strong. Even then she didn't cry or get mad. She just wanted everyone to know how much I had given up for her. That i had lost my job trying to make sure she got to her appointments. After that she used what energy she had to sit down and talked about her wishes. I feel so bad because I was so blind to it. I was too busy trying to keep her spirits up and be strong in front of everybody that i didn't even let it sink in...
I am so sorry for rambling...I just have so much on my heart.
I look in the mirrow and i see her in....and that hurts.

HC I just wish she would call me just to make sure i got home ok and that i had a good day at work. Or just to talk to my babies. Or just to tell me not to worry....because He knows what's around the corner.

NUPE4LIFE 01-24-2006 03:05 AM

HC Evaclear I went through the same thing when my grandmother died. Wanting to call her or have her call me. So I'm here for you.

StarFish106 01-24-2006 09:07 AM

Evaclear
 
HC you have my deepest condolences?
HC i understand what it is like to lose a parent BUT it is never the same as loosing your mother?
HC remember Hebrews 13:5, II Timothy 1:7 & Phillipians 4:19?
HC we are all here for you if you need us?
HC >>>>HUGS TO YOU<<<<< ?

((((((((((((SOROR EVACLEAR))))))))))))))))))

HC know that I feel you?
HC I understand the mirror thing?
HC it's hard going home because I "scare" people?
HC they just stare and finally say, "I'm sorry, but you look JUST like Dolores?"
HC it makes me want to cry? :(
HC sometimes I just want to talk to my mommy or get a hug from her or something?
HC ANYTHING?
HC it's been almost 13 years?
HC I'm crying as I type because it STILL hurts? :(
HC I will keep you in my prayers, Soror?
HC, nikki1920, I will do the same for you?

Steeltrap 01-24-2006 12:33 PM

^^
HC I'm tearing up when I read Soror Ideal's post?
HC I'm glad that G. (MamaTrap) is still with me, but she's nearing 80 years old and I have to be realistic about the fact that she will be leaving us soon?
HC I lost my Dad nearly 10 years ago and it hurts every day, but I can't fathom what's going to happen when MamaTrap goes?
:(

HC that all sounds too familiar?
HC my grandmother was diagnosed with cancer in early 2002?
HC she died in September 2002?
HC I still wake up some days and think that I'm going to call her to see how she's doing?
HC I still expect to hear her voice when I get together with the family?
HC it seems so unfair that she is gone and I'm here without her words of support and encouragement?
HC she was my inspiration for becoming a Soror?
HC I cry every time we sing the hymn because it reminds me of her?
HC my aunts and mom all remind me of her, their looks, voices, everything?
HC I know that the Lord has a plan for all of us?
HC I know that the Lord is always here and he knows how to make us all deal with the sadness of loss?
HC just lean on the Lord?

HC this chick tried to talk about Bush and the black vote to me today?
HC she was very young and of the "other" persuasion?
HC why even start that type of conversation at work?
HC you might get embarrassed?
HC she "just didn't understand" why if the amount of "AA" int he military increased, and the majority of the military votes were for Bush, yet he has cut "almost every program to AA's"...
HC she was trying to call us "dumb" on the sly?
HC I shut her down with "I don't trust any information concerning Bush and the amount of votes that he received".

HC she is just pure TPT?
