DL.ART THANKFUL THURSDAY -- DELAYED

Hi Everyone,
DL.ART THANKFUL THURSDAY -- DELAYED UNTIL Friday March 9th.

Most of you know I left for Michigan in January!! The reason being  to help my family with my mother who was in rehabilitation at Heartland after a hospital visit to Henry Ford Hospital. We were able to bring her back to her home and care for her there until she passed away on March 2. We had the viewing and funeral on March 5th. My husband David flew out on the 3rd and came home with me on the 7th - We got in at 4:00 in the morning today.
I will miss my mom very much (as tears roll down my cheeks while I write this). I feel so blessed to have been able to be with her and my siblings through the end.


Have a blessed day, Diana

  5. I'll pray for you & your family at this time, loss of your mother. My mother died in 1976 (she was 50 when she died, I was a sophomore in college).

  21. Oh Diana, I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your mother. I knew that you had flown back to Michigan after she was hospitalized and when I hadn't seen any updates I figured that you were still there. How sad to lose her, but I know you are grateful to have been there to help out and spend time with her. I lost my mother in 2013 and still miss her every day. Hugs to you.

  24. Diana, I am so sorry.
    Your mum is with you and yours all the time (in spirit). She is in your heart in your memories.
    It is hard to loss parent, take time and mourn. Speak a lot of her with people that have history with her and you and talk to people about her. It is terapeutic.
    Big hug of suport
