Well..here i am again...as you know, it wasn't but weeks, just weeks ago that i put my Daddy to rest...Mom and i spent two and half months walking through steps to get Dad set with hospice, getting him home, tending to home only briefly for the seven days he was home before he passed..Mom and Daddy were married 35 years, yes, she is, she was my step mom, but the only woman i call Mom...me and mine were beginning to heal, to try to move forward, i sent Mom off to Hawaii for 10 days, she didnt want to go; i said she needed to get out of the house, to go sit in the sun, see the beauty...she went kickin' and screamin..lol...she got home 4 days ago..now the house was quiet..the kids and grandkids gone, friends had stopped coming by in droves with condolenses and well wishes...she was now feeling what life would be for her; alone...she sat to eat her supper, turned on the TV...she always said these days she was so tired she had to nap before she slept...she was tired, sad, broken-hearted...she did sleep...she won't wake again...i don't care what the medical examiner will call the technical term..i know..it was a broken heart..she was so LOST without Daddy..much like me...but she was tired...i think Daddy came to get her and she wanted to go...i cannot believe this... six weeks...and here i am again...i have the memories, the bond that was so strong which strengthened as she and i cared for Daddy...i promised my Daddy i would take care of her..did i fail? she "slept" alone...i have to believe she was NOT alone, Daddy came for her..i love you Mom..i love You Daddy! ohhhhhhhhhhhh.....
