She looked everywhere for her wedding ring.
She accused me of even taking it, bec she was so bewildered.
I called her neighbor and only friend of 22 yrs, before I "took her with me"...he said he never
saw her wear it. Dad had passed 26 yrs earlier.
When the coroner came out of her bedroom she said I have her bathrobe here and her
wedding ring.
I said, "What? Wedding ring?"
I guess she had found it.
She was 88.

So sorry to hear of the loss of your mother. It seems she located it as It was of great importance to her and she wanted that peace of mind before she passed. I have heard of people tying up loose ends or finding something important near the end of their lifetime here.

God bless her soul. May she indeed rest in peace. I'm glad she found it and had that peace of mind.
Do you think she had misplaced it the entire time? or was it the higher up sending a message? |

Wow! what an amazing story.
So sorry about your mom's passing. She probably wanted to make sure she had her ring on before joining your dad. May she and he rest in peace together.

Sorry to hear about her passing. I wonder why she suddenly decided to look for it after so long? Did she know that she was dying?

Who knows about these things, but I was shocked...she was in good health...just
had dementia, thus,I had to "go get her".
It is quite comical taking care of someone with dementia....I still laugh at having 5 cans
of cat food open at the same time....and the cat only ate dry food.
Each morning I would put the food back into a can..."Did Jasmine eat?", she'd shout out.
"Yup..." Then she'd open up a can of tuna fish and start up with that....so I bought
a lot of cans for her to play with. Too funny.

Glad she found the ring. Somehow she knew she was going to need it soon.
I think maybe they know it's coming. My dad had Alzheimer's and lived in a care facility in a faraway state. About a week before he passed, he came to me in a dream. He told me he had much to say but there was no time. I hadn't seen or heard from him or that side of the family in about a year. A few days after the dream they called and said his time was coming soon, and he passed away 3 days later.
