Same Here ,thanx for posting ,. Personaly I prefer births over the final hour ,and I know you agree ,but when all in order, after a long wonderful life as my mother had ,there was a final guilt free relief, that now ceased her suffering and ultimate helplessness and dependency for a LADY who devoted her entire life to making things better for everyone around her , , . my Sara and I were with Mom as she passed away march 20, I held moms hand ,, and dialed everyone with my free hand at 2am, 6 more were there in short order , ,, donna came 1st , .. we sang to MOM a song from church.."We Remember How You Loved us , til your death , and still we celebrate,because you are with us here , and we believe that we will see you when you come ,.. in your glory,Lord ... we remember , we celebrate ,we believe " ...we could still detect a faint heartbeat, but nuthin could be done to keep mom here ..and then we started praying the rosary, with Sara praying the 1st Hail Mary of each decade in Sicilian Italian ,( Mom LOVED my Sara like Her Own , and loved to here the" PRETTY TALK" ) one by one ,everyone started making it in and qently touched Mom , and took spots at her bedside ,,.when we finished prayer , the house Dog" Curly "
seemed to understand that his companion was Now..gone,,. he is a Cairin Terrior ,Donna Laid him on my Mothers side, and he licked her hand and nimbly climbed up on her and sniffed at Moms face,then lowered his head between his paws and whined and sniffed .. a very touching moment for all of us to witness from the "furry little pain in the arse ,,. " as Mom sometimes lovingly .LOL ..refered to him ...Donna broke tearful silence and said ," if Curly rolls over on his back with all 4 in the air to mimic I am gonna smack him one "" ,..in true honesty we celebrated thru lots of tears moms long life at her funeral , my oldest cousin is 82, he commented at the funeral dinner that," it was a shame they did not do 21 gun salutes for " Rosie the Riviters " because mom deserved that from her years building airplanes during world war 2 "..
