Parents make up such a strong part of our identity and your mum sounds to have been an amazing influence. I am glad she passed peacefully and that you were able to spend some precious time with her beforehand. Thoughts and prayers with you.Suemhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03128736092253293640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7086799115254785699.post-34472686463205317702015-01-11T08:15:08.942-05:002015-01-11T08:15:08.942-05:00Thank you, Antonia.

I can't put what I hope for you in such beautiful words as yours but know I'm thinking of you. <br /><br />I'm sure you're already discovering that your memory of the precious last moments you shared with your Mom in that 'thin', holy place between death and life will become a blessing, a source of strength and an ongoing connection with her.<br /><br />Go gently, and I look forward to welcoming you back. <br /><br />Antonia xAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7086799115254785699.post-896433360730172642015-01-06T09:48:02.280-05:002015-01-06T09:48:02.280-05:00Thank you, Nancy.
