Archive for the ‘Celebration Of Life’ tag
Hi Everyone
I thought that I had better update myself, all has not been so good. My Mom passed away a week ago Sunday. She had not been feeling so well for a few weeks, had her to the Dr. and in emergency ward. She had a real pain in her tummy and was unable to keep food down.
She was so determined that she was not going to go into the hospital, but her pain got so bad we got her to go. They were running some test, ruling out this and that, but the stress on her body caused her to have a heart attact. We got a call from the hospital to come as she was not going to make it through the night. Myself, my 2 sisters, nieces and her best friend were all with her to the end.
My dad passed away 5 years ago and she never stopped missing him.
We had a Celebration of Life for her yesterday, this fellow that lives on a small Island near here raises Doves. He came to the Celebration yesterday with his doves and placed two of his doves in my and my sisters hands, read a beautiful poem about Love and Doves and then he released the doves he had in his cage and we released the ones we were holding. They all gathered together and circled around us for about 10 min and flew back home. We played the song "You are the Wind Beneath My Wings" as the doves were circling. Dad gave here a jewerly box that played that song.
But in my heart I know that Dad came to take her home.
I am going to miss her so much, she was so funny and she gave me strenght when I was so low.
