Since Madjacks is like a family to me I hope you dont mind me sharing a sad story than has happened to me..........

On sunday evening I was called at work to tell me that the paramedics were at my moms house.......seems my mother(68 yrs old) had fallen to the ground and lost consciousness.......her boyfriend who lives with her went to her imediately and noticed she had no pulse......he called 911 and they arrived and began to give her mouth to mouth recessatation.....they got her heart going again but she must have went to long without oxygen to the brain as she never woke up..........she died in me and my twin sisters arms today........I am very very sad at the moment.

I try to think of the good things like she had lung cancer 4 yrs ago and was able to beat it. So I was luckly to have had the last 4 yrs with her. I think she knew I loved her very much even though I never got a chance to say goodbye to her. I never really thought about it till now but she is the first true person close to me that has died. I am very fortunate in this regard being I am 43 yrs old. I have had uncles and cousins die and my real father died when I was very young so basically she is the first really close person I have lost. She was always worried about suffering a long and painful death so at least she went very fast without any pain at all. My mom always said when you times up your times up.

I guess what the doctors said was that she went to long without getting oxygen to the brain and had she had woken up she would have had no brain function so in a way it was a good thing god took her. It would have killed me had my mom not been able to speak or understand anything.

Sorry to share something so sad but if you have any words I sure need them now.
I guess time is the only healer that I have.

Thanks for listening..........

I know its extremely painful for you now, but realize that she did get to spend a good long time here. Every time a negative thought creeps into your head, try hard to replace it with good memories that you shared together. You cant bring her back, and I'm guessing she would want you to remember all the good times as well. Be strong, and realize that one day you'll see her again.

Very sorry to hear about your loss maverick2112. My condolences and here is a poem that I hope brings you some type of comfort.

I'm Free

Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free.
I'm following the path that was made for me.
It was time to leave when I heard the call.
I turned my back and left it all.

I could not stay another day...
To laugh, to love, to work or play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way.
I found that peace at the close of the day.

Be not burdened with times of sorrow.
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life's been full, I've savored much;
Good friends, good times, a loved one's touch.

Perhaps my time seemed all too brief.
Don't lengthen it with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and share with me.
At last I'm free, be glad for me...

I received a call from my dad in 1969 and he told me that my stepmother had died. I went to the hospital and when I got there dad told me that the Doctor had brought her back to life. She had been declared dead for over 10 minutes. I went in her room and when I could I asked her how it felt to die. She told me it was the most WONDERFUL thing in the world. She floated down a dark hall into a light filled with the most wonderful joy she had ever felt. Her exact words were the BASTARDS brought her back! She died the next say and I know she is back in that wonderful place. God bless you and your family......
