Thanks, you all are so understanding. The funeral was today but she handled it okay, probably better than I would in the same position.

Mom is gone. She went downhill fast but she didnt suffer. Lots of Morphine. She didnt even know I was there these last few days. But thats okay. I know.

The funeral was very small. Just a couple cousins. The Outlaws didnt even send flowers. Lots of flowers tho. All my clients sent flowers. I called a couple to cancel and they blabbed.

I guess this officially makes me an orphan now. She was my last close relative. I dont even have a cat since I lost Mr Mouskiewitz.

I think the morphine really helped him in his last few days. Hopefully someday there will be a better treatment than chemotherapy.
Im sorry for your loss.

I'm so sorry that you lost her. *HUGS* Drop me a line if you need to talk... you know that I know how you feel. Take a breath now and relax a little... she knew you were there, she just couldn't show it. Take care...

I'm so sorry Cecelia, I know what you are going through. Thank goodness she didn't suffer. Right now we're trying to get hospice to hurry up and come get the bed and equipment out of my grandmas house, she says she just can't stand to look at it any longer. I know what you mean about those certain types of family members too. My grandma's stepson was already asking for his dad's new truck before he even passed away. This man never even came to visit his dad, but now all of a sudden he shows up to claim his new truck. My grandma doesn't want to give it to him because of the way he acts, but she also doesn't want to go against her husband's wishes (he promised it to him). It's sad.

Oh, Cecilia,
I am so sorry . I hope you have the support of good friends and a loving partner. It's so hard to lose a parent, even or especially if the relationship wasn't the greatest. I think if you have a wonderful relationship, you don't have any regrets and that helps a little bit. I wish I knew what to say....but I don't, other than time helps. Maybe it would be a good time to adopt a kitty, if that is possible. Do something good for yourself! Lots of hugs and my sincere condolences.
Katz

Thanks for the sentiments but Im okay. I cant relax yet tho. No rest for the wicked. I have to get her house cleaned out. Fixed up and sold. Now. I own the house she lived in. She paid half the mortgage payment and the utlities. I paid the rest. But I cant afford to pay it all plus my stuff. Good thing I do my own DIY.

I sorry your Grandma is having trouble with her Outlaw. Mine used to bother me but I am so over them now. If she doesnt want to give him the truck then she shouldnt. He wont be back either way. She should sell it and save the money back just in case. You never know what bills may pop up.

Sorry didnt mean to make you sad. Im okay. No regrets. Just feeling a little sorry for myself for a second there. Its been just me and Mom for a while now. And now its just me. Ive been persona non grata since the Huz went to jail. But hey. If I need to talk I just go on line. Even if its 3am theres always somebody there.

Ive looked a cat or two but I keep comparing them to Mr Mouskiewitz. No time right now anyway. Maybe after I get things settled.
