Selma, I am happy to hear this news about your mother. And good luck with the care purchase :) GinaP :cool:

Selma, I am so glad that your mother is a bit better. And I hope that you will find the right car. But with the help of the family mechanics that will be no problem. Stay healthy and strong my dear Selma. Love

It's good to hear your Mum is a little better, my dear Selma. :hug Today is the sixth anniversary of my own mother's passing and I'm thinking about mothers in general, but especially of that special bond and influence that we carry with us always, despite trials along the way. (Of course, as I have my son home this weekend, I'm thinking of it from the other perspective too.) Keep up your amazing strength and resourcefulness, Selma; we love you too!

Stevie today must be a sad day for you, thinking at your mother. I suppose she was not so old when she passed away. I hope you have good memories of her. Loosing your mother must be very hard. Nobody can understand the special bond between mother and daughter. And it is good that you have Scott this weekend. He will bring you the sunshine you need.

:hug Stevie. Six years may sound like a long time, but it is incredibly short when we are reminded of a loved one's loss, especially one so close as a Mother. Enjoy your time with Scott. Selma :hug and hang in there. Your Mother must know that she is greatly loved with all the care you give her. Glad to hear she is feeling a little better.

Selma, I'm glad to hear your mother is better. Stevie, I can understand how the anniversary of your mother's passing away is affecting you. My grandmother and my grandfather (my father's parents) passed away 8 and 6 years ago respectively and each anniversary bring back memories of the the time we shared and I miss them more than ever when I think of how important they were in my life. I'm sure Scott will help overcome your sadness. :hug to both of you, Selma and Stevie.

Hello Selma, I'm heartened to hear that your mother feels some better,and will continue to keep her in thought for the days ahead. ----------------- Stevie, My heart goes out to you. It's not easy to give up one so dear to us. I'm glad you've got your children,and little Thomas, around to enjoy for a while.

With sadness I have to inform you that my mother, Aisha past away last night, she lost her battle with cancer. Last month she was very very ill and weak, she couldn't walk, speak or eat and was in pain. She died at our home at the age of 58. I am devastated but I know that she is better place now where the pain is gone. The funeral will be tomorrow. It has been very hard seeing her suffer but there is one thing that happened almost two weeks ago when she had another epileptic seizure caused be metastasis on her brain we called ER but they refused to come at first saying to my dad "we are familiar about your wife's case. She is dying. " and they basically said you take care after her we won't come. And since the doctor who is btw younger than me and know from previous visit that I am a nurse, he said that I give her medication intravenously. But I was out of my mind watching her shaking weak body that I started shaking myself. And the fact that I finished school 8 years ago didn't help. You all have been a great comfort with your thoughts and prayers, much appreciate it. Love. Selma

There are no words to say how sorry I am for your and your family's loss, Selma. You are never ready to lose someone you love, especially someone who was still to young to pass away as your mother was. Remember that I am here, if you need somebody to talk to or a shoulder to cry on. :hug

I'm terribly sorry for your loss, Selma. My thoughts will be with you. :hug

Oh Selma, I'm so sorry to hear of your great loss. Just last night I was telling my parents of how much I have enjoyed getting to know you from the website. I told them how challenging your life has been and how you have continued on with a great deal of courage. I pray and hope that you can face this time of sorrow with the same courage you have shown us. My heart goes out to you. I wish there was a way to make things better for your family. Please know that my thoughts and prayers will be on you these coming weeks as I'm sure they will be from all of us on IZ. :hug

Oh my poor Selma, I am so sorry to hear that your mother is passed away. This is so sad. 58 is so young but every age is too young. It breaks my heart to read that she has suffered so much. Then I always ask myself why ? You all had such a sad live the last years and instead of a little happiness, she gets this terrible cancer. Why, why why ? But like you say, now she is in a better place with no pain. That is the only comfort. Selma, I wish you a lot of strenght in this difficult days, and also for your father and family. You did all you could for her, you are such a good girl. I hope that someone day your live will change and that there is some luck for you. It was a long time ago that we had heard you, so I knew that there was something wrong. Selma, we are here to talk to, remember that you are not alone.

Selma, you are in my thoughts and my heart at this very sad time. Please remember we are here, in public or in private, to listen and to wrap our cyber arms around you. Your loss is unbearable now, but I hope you can gather some small crumb of comfort from knowing that your dear Mum, who fought so hard against this cruel disease, is at peace now, free from pain. All love and strength to you, my friend :hug Lindsay

Selma, I am truly very sorry for your loss. I wish you and your loved ones strength throughout the most difficult of times.

Selma, I am very sorry. May God be with you and your family. May we all meet again in Paradise. GinaP
