Fireheart thank you for posting and sharing so intimately your feelings at this horribly sad and difficult time. All you can do at this time is the best you can give at any given time--some days it will be a lot and others maybe less. I know what you mean about not being ready for your Mom to leave--it's always too soon. Please know that she will always be with you--I often feel my Mom's presence. Please post whenever you want us--there are so many great, compassionate, loving people here. You and your Mom are in my thoughts and prayers. Jeano
