She stopped eating on Wednesday and stopped drinking on Thursday. She passed away on Saturday night around 11:15PM.


I went on my respite trip for one night, but came back Saturday afternoon. I spent the afternoon with my Mom. I was with her when she took her last breath and I am so blessed that I got to hold her hand.


I miss her terribly, but she was in pain and was asleep for a week before she passed. She went peacefully.


Now to plan her funeral.


Thanks to everyone that answers questions and helps people on here.


I am scared of what the future holds. My life was my Mom.

Update: I just need to vent and don't want to post a new question on here.
My family is being difficult regarding the funeral service.
I am compromising to make them happy, but if you give people an inch they will take a mile!
Pending things that need to be taken care of:
Flowers
Location for a possible viewing on Saturday

This grieving process is hard enough and family telling you that the service you have planned for your Mom is , "Half-assed," definitely doesn't make it easier. I gave my Mom the best in life.
I think they forget that I lost MY MOM, and not their sister or aunt.....MY MOM!
