Does she know how important today is for our ancestors?
To be with us even though they have departed to other realms?
After only 3 days in hospital and saying she wanted no more of this World, taking her last rights and quickly loosing will and ability to function, my Mother has gone to her next adventure.
Remember in June was their 50th anniversary I was trying so hard to attend and the a/p was flooded, actually all of Queens was! And I was unable to attend. So the family sent lots of photos to share. I was shocked to see how Mother looked. I felt I had to prepare for short time I was to face this day!
And she had a long time of illness where there was no joy or ease in her life. I gave the photos to friends who also saw what I did. So it was only time. Then communication was severed and I was only speaking to Father which was before very rare! So when the normal way of life changes so radically, one gets an idea that all is not well!
Now the family is trying to convince Father not to join her. As he sees no reason to continue. Most Favored Brother is taking time to help him. If anyone can convince him there is more to enjoy and live for it will be him! Proffessional negotiator. :-) for the government.
Unable to reliably walk and verbally communicate now I have voted on remaining here and not return home. I would have returned to comfort her. Not to a funeral to people I see once every ? many years? And I learned from her Mother that I might actually visit her more now than when she was here, as happens!
I wish she had the knowledge her Mother had of who she had been already and looked forward to the next passage. ...
I am thrilled she has chosen my favorite day to hornor our loved ones who are busy in other lives and lands. My family is upset that I don't see her departure the same as they do. Well if I worried about such things they believe they have to look forward to, I would be afraid too!
So my request is to perhaps think of some small way to reasure her that all is well and not to fear the journey...
In June I tried to say that it is easy facing that new door called Death when you have faith that you will get what you believe in! As I came so close myself to leaving in May. It changed my ideas into reality. It is what is anticipated/looked forward to. [not to sound like a radical prefering the next life! :-) ]
Thank you all, your sister in the Spirit of our Mother Our Goddess LI
