My mom passed away today. November 8th 2004

Original post by Danielle&Scott

Hey everyone. I don't know if you saw my post a few weeks ago, but my mom was sick and in the hospital. She was fighting for her life. She had an infection in her lungs, CCL, and Liver Cancer. She put up an amazing fight, but in the end her body started to shut down and she couldnt handle it anymore.

My mom was the miracle woman. She is a 14 years survivor of breast cancer and she has been sick with liver cancer for 3 years....She never once complained, she worked up to the last friday before we admitted her to Mercy ICU, and she alwyas tried to look her best and be happy.

My mom was an amazing person, and I am so happy that she was my mother. I would never complain about The 33 years that she spent with me. and I will never forget them. She was not only my mother, but she was also my best friend. She taught me so many important things in my life, and even though most of the time I was stubborn and didnt take her advice, I know in the end she was always right. I will always love her and her memory will always be in my heart.

I love you MOM.

Scott

Scott & Danielle,

It must have been very hard for your Mother to leave such a wonderful family. May you find comfort in love you all shared together and she will be with you in your hearts and memories forever. May you find peace in her peace. Our thoughts and prayers are with you both.

Today was better than yesterday. Tomorrow is the last night of sitting shiva at my sisters house. Starting monday I gotta go on a diet because I have been so stressed with my mom in the hospital and everything that went on this week that I really havent been taking care of myself. I really need to start doing that. I know my mom wouldnt be happy with me if I keep gaining weight...

Anyway...I have my good moments and I have my bad moments. I am just glad I have a loving wife and a loving family around me.

I am so sorry for your loss
I am grateful you've had so much support through this time from the hospital and your wife.

I am also thankful you've been able to share your grief and work through it.

I am so very inspired by you and your strength.

Scott, it takes time. I found comfort knowing my father touched so many lives and I hope you are getting that from your friends and family paying their respects to your mother.

My father and I and my sister went to the ICU yesterday at Mercy to drop off a basket of fruit and desserts, candy to the valet parker that always parked my dads car, and cookies to the front desk at the breast cancer center....Also to my mothers breast cancer physician.

We are going to write letters to all the heads of the nurses and the doctors that helped out my mom. We feel they deserve so much, since they treated her so well.
