    Today is one of the worst days of my life

    today is one of the worst days of my life. i woke up to take the kids to school but for some reason i felt a weird feeling not to go over the border. and hour later i got the worse call from my little brother. My mom passed away this morning. i know she is no longer suffering and in pain. my heart hurts my mom was only 54yrs old. today is my grandmother (my moms mother) birthday. I am so thankful that i got to spend a week with her but it still hurts so bad. My little guy dont even know my mom except for the week we were up there in june. please keep my family in your prayers as we have to say goodbye to a wonderful person. i just wish i could hear her voice one last time.

    You have my prayers. I'm so sorry. Your mom is no longer suffering, I know that's what everyone says and it doesn't make it any easier, I'm sorry. Cherish the memories you have of her, they will last forever. I know we don't "know" eachother, but if there is anything I can do besides pray for your family (cause I already am) please let me know.

    I am so sorry for your loss. I don't know what I would do if I lost one of my parents while I am out of the States. And on your grandmothers birthday too just makes it that much harder I am sure. I hope you can take some comfort in the fact that she is no longer suffering in this physical world and is now watching over you and your family.

    There are no words to comfort you you right now, I know. The loss of your mother is so difficult, I am still mourning the loss of mine 2 years later. You're in my thoughts at this time, my heart aches for you. I hope you find comfort in those you care about around you. So very sorry.
