My mother had been in poor health and in and out of hospitals since mid-September (see previous post), and I'd been spending most of my time in the Chicago area to support her. She had been dreading but hoping for a good result from a couple of scheduled surgeries in early December, but it was not to be; her body just gave out on her.

She died quietly on November 26, the day after Thanksgiving and a week after her 86th birthday, both family events that she enjoyed.

I will miss her so much.

So sorry for your loss. It must have been a hard time for you. But I take hope from the word "Quietly". And also that she saw family at the end.

Thank you. It was especially hard because we had had hopes of her improvement. But our last words to each other were of love.
