Yesterday I had the priviledge........no; the HONOR, to sit by my Mom's bedside the entire day. Did she know it was me sitting there? Most likely not.......but I knew and felt such a comfort........a sort of peace being there next to her.
It was hard to leave.....
And the little pink daisy hairclip in her hair looked so pretty......

Liz,
Your last two blogs ... what can I say? I feel the love you have for your Mom and the thought of being in another state form my parents during this time in their lives saddens my heart. It brings tears to my eyes. I have never meet your Mom, except through your blogs where she has been mentioned. I am sure she is proud of you! I am a better person for you and your blogs being in my life. I thank you for sharing!!!! With tears in my eyes, I sign off.....

From the picture of your mom say in the 30s or 40s? there is quite a resemblance.

You can try, but you are never really prepared for the loss of someone so dear. We pray that God will give you peace and comfort.

My heart aches for you as I remember the feelings I had as my Mom left this life. I knew she had gone on to an even better life, but that didn't make it any less sad at losing the one I could always talk to. I'll keep you and her in my prayers. Love you. Nyla
"Luv it! Good news-you will get to be with her "forever". We don't have to say good-bye-we get to simply say "see you later"!"
Liz, I had to reply again. My heart is with you. I am going out of town for about 4 days, but keep me posted via e-mail how you are doing. My sister and I had the privelage of being with our brother yesterday. Not sure how well or not well he is doing, but he cried when we left, first time he has done that. oh,and you know what, I bet your mom felt your presence.
Love you, Mary Lee
I've been reading your Blog...My prayers are with you adn your family. Such a comfort that you know she is going to be with the Lord and you will see her sweet face in eternity. I love you, friend!
Sweet and precious. How are you? Pray for you and Mom.
I can hear the story in the background my dear. I honor you for honoring her.
Hey Liz,
Can I ask you something?
I am reading your blog posts and not understanding what is happening. The last one I read said she only has a few more weeks? Really? I hate this and I know you guys do to. I am so sorry this is happening.
I miss not being in Dallas because of things like this...
Love you Liz and your family...Miss you a whole bunch!!!
Liz – she knew and God knew where you were! Mom’s just know these things. May God bless you with His peace during this awful vigil!

She meets the Lord....

"Liz, what a lovely tribute to a much loved mother. I lost my mother when she was only 63 (36 years ago) and I still love and miss her so much. No one can take away the lovely memories, however, and we will be reunited some day. My best wishes to you and yours."
Some people hold your heart for reasons no words can convey and your mom is one of those. God blessed me when He allowed her to be in my life. Thank you for posting this, I needed to cleanse my soul with tears. Prayers and love to you."
We are lifting you and your family up to God Liz... May peace and comfort be your Mom's, and may God's grace cover the family during this extremely emotional time. If there is anything ya'll need, let us know. Dave, Renee & Isaac"
Strength and courage my friend - love you!
Liz! ISuch an interesting angle in that picture of your mom. Very creative….and of course has the Liz touch! I hope she will make it until Mother’s Day. I’ll be praying for that anyway!!!
I’m praying for you during this precious time with your Mom. You are so right in taking advantage of EVERY minute.....
I love you, Liz.

You and your whole family are in our prayers,especially your Dad. Your Mom was such a wonderful lady and I'm so blessed that I had the opportunity to know her. We're going to miss her but I know that we'll see her again. No doubt! I love you so much!!!
