Hey guys,
I just got home from the hospital where my mom has just passed away. She went in tues with back pain and shortness of breath. They said she had pneumonia and up untill Thurs seemed ok. Friday I got a call at work that she had taken a turn for the worst and by 6:00 Saturday she had passed away. We (my wife,siblings and dad)were at the hospital when she died and it was painless and calm for her but my head is spinning. She had problems with her lungs for about a year or so but never told us about it and I just didn't know how sick she was. My kids are taking it real hard and if it weren't for my wife id be a basket case. Thanks for listening and letting my cry on your shoulders.
 
In our Prayers and thoughts....

Bro... I'm sorry.......
What a shock.....

As I read and re-read your post to us/me my heart cries out ... I'm sorry your having to go thru this. Any hour of the day or night if you need to cry, talk, be prayed for or pray with someone, whatever... please.... call me Chris 360.904.4053 .

I remember 11 yrs ago during the 10 years we lived in Eastern Europe.... I got a call from my sister letting me know that my father had gotten very sick suddenly and was admitted to the hospital. I flew back to the States the next morning. He passed away 5 days later..... I remember well the pain...
Thanks for you letting us/me into your life to walk this journey with you in heart, thoughts and prayers. I know it's not an easy place you and your loved ones are in.

Praying for you and yours

Chris,

I'm glad we are all a big family here. I am sorry for your loss and will keep you in our prayers. The same thing happened recently with my wife's grandfather. It all happened so fast. I was out of town and he passed before I could return. I understand your pain and I will be so bold as to say we are all here with you when needed.

Chris, I am very sorry to hear of your loss!

I am also sorry that it came without much time for you to prepare.

Here's wishing you and yours the very best life has to offer!!

Chris. We're (the Klein fam) praying that God gives you comfort and peace in this time. Draw close to Him and he'll draw close to you. It's one of God's promises. My dad died 7 years ago. God's comfort and peace didn't alwayse make sense but it was always real -- and timely -- still is.

Matt.
 
Chris-
Carol and my thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family. It hasn't been a year since my father's unexpected death. I only have one thing to say- Look to the Lord for strength, and He will bless you with peace and understanding.
 
Chris,

I have not been on the board for a couple of days and just saw your post. My heart aches goes out to you and your family. My prayers are with you during this time for strength and an ever present sense of peace.

As myself and others who have lost loved ones in the past year or two, I can also say that the support received from all of us here on the board means more than you think it might. We are privilidged that you would share this with us and privilidged to be part of your support. Even thought it may not be much, we hope it helps.

our prayers are with you buddy..

Matt
 
My sincerest condolences...

I am truly so very sorry to read of your agonizing loss. My heart grieves for you and your family... especially your kids who are surely quite bewildered by it all.

Luckily, I've not had to go through this experience w/ my Mom, but lost my Dad 32 years ago (when 10) and it still hurts. :( I'm scared beyond my wits of losing my Mom... b/c of exactly what you are experiencing now.

But as has been said much better above than I can muster right now, take comfort that your Mom rests easy now and is out of this world and in a better place. May God bless her soul.

Praying for you and yours, I am sorry I can only offer but mere words in this most terrible time for you. Seek peace and comfort in the Lord's arms; as you know, He knows best and IS indeed the Great Comforter.

God bless you! :(

Chris, I am sorry for your loss. While words can only offer so much comfort you have friends here you can talk to if you need.

I never really know quite what to say at times like this...'sorry' just doesn't seem to be the right word. My condolences to you & your family. We all know that someday our parents will leave us, but we're never really prepared for it or the impact that it will have...and I think that a sudden loss like this just magnifies it. I nearly lost my mother to a stroke a couple of years ago and she's still not 'quite right', so the loss of her is never far from my mind. My father has his own health issues that he's being secretive about despite me point blank asking him and telling him that I'm concerned about him. Take peace in knowing that she provided a wonderful life for you and that she has merely completed this phase of her journey. You will meet her again in due time... Peace.
