Hi, Olivia. As I think you know, I was a hospital/hospice chaplain for 25 years. The experiences of being with people as they anticipate death (and as they die) enriched my life beyond measure. Thank you for this telling of your mother's dying/death. I wish I could have known her. Bless you in your remembering.

Your Mother’s resolve and wisdom are remarkable. Thank you for taking us upon this journey. These are important conversations and understandings to have. You share them eloquently.

Very touching story & poem.... (fyi-"90 Minutes in Heaven", by Don Piper, helped me after the passing of my daughter; the author provides an account of what he actually experienced after he was involved in an auto accident in which he was pronounced dead.)
