At 1:20 AM Friday morning, my mother passed away. Instead of saying “goodbye,” I choose to say “see you later.” From my conversations with Mom, I believe the moment she took her last breath, she immediately went to Heaven.
On Wednesday of last week she had a horrible day, so I sat beside her and spoke to her about what and who she had waiting for her in Heaven. Two of my sisters joined me as we sang “Jesus Loves Me.”
Over the last week I continued to reassure Mom that it was ok to die; that she did not have to continue to fight for her kids; and that, we would all be fine, and I said: “Mom you can go on the Heaven.”
Love you Mom, and I’ll see you later.
…….I may not post here for a few days as I tend to the situation at hand….
Our hearts are heavy as my oldest and dearest friend has gone to be with our Lord. RIP Evelyn and we love you now and always. I’ll see you later.
