Prayer request

Posted on 06/06/2009 2:55:08 AM PDT by marthemaria

I just lost my mother. She was about to turn 60 this year. She was the most perfect mother one could ever wish for. I will miss her so mush.

Please pray for her. I hope she is in a better place. The last words we said to eachother was how much I loved her and she loved me.

I dont know if i can handle this. My brother is a freeper also and I dont know anything. I hope she is in heaven. She had epilepsi and had a seizure in the night. I sa her and she was all blue. I am scared I will remember her like that.

My deepest sympathies to you on your terrible loss. I know what you are going through and I truly feel your pain. Your mother is home with our Lord and He will also watch over you.
I am so sorry.

Since your mother was a blessing, remember her that way. From what you have written I believe that she would counsel you accordingly.

As you grieve, thank God for having such a wonderful mother. Mine is, and I know that her day is approaching as well.

Prayers up!

I’m so sorry for your loss.

Remember, the reason it hurts so much is because she was so special. You had so much - that’s why it’s hurting now. But you’ll still have the memories of the good forever.

I just lost both my mother and father in the last six months. I know what you are feeling. It’s hard. Keep praying and talk about it.

May God’s love enfold you and your family during this time of trouble.

I hope she is in heaven. She had epilepsi [etc.] I am scared I will remember her like that.

From experience, I think the passage of time will allow you to remember your mother more and more frequently from happy, normal times. I'm troubled, however, by your comment, "I hope she is in heaven." It connotes a little bit of doubt as I read it.

According to Jesus, "Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter. Many will say to Me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many miracles?' And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness." (Matthew 7:21-23) It's important to know where you stand with God before you die, and I certainly hope your mother is in heaven.

My prayers are with you and your family. I lost my mother on June 15th of ‘06. She would have been 60 that July. Allow the Lord to hold you in His loving embrace. You can make it through this,I know it feels impossible now. Peace be with you.

Prayer to you. My mom had several strokes while she was dying and looked very eerie. I thought this is what I would remember but I really don’t recall what she looked like as she lay dying. I remember what she looked like during her last years - vital, alive and happy.

You can handle your grief by remembering the love you shared with your mom and your family.

For now the pain will seem unbearable but it will diminish as you fill the places of pain with memories of her love.

All of us who lost our own Mothers know what you are going thru.

Grieve now, but look forward to the day that you will understand and take comfort knowing the greatest gift God gave you was the last words you spoke to each other. ((hugs))

God Bless you, your brother and your mother in heaven. Please try to picture her laughing. Please try to picture her giving you a kiss. Please try tp picture her telling you she loved you. Please try to picture her giving you a gift. Think about the details of these things. Think about what she was wearing, and how she smelled when she was dressed up nicely.

Bless you, bless you, bless you. Prayers sent.

Prayers up for your mom, you, and your whole family.

Notre père, qui êtes aux cieux!
Que votre nom soit sanctificié. Que votre règne vienne.
Que votre volonté soit faite, sur la terre comme au ciel.
Donnez-nous aujourd'hui notre poindre ce jour.
Pardonnez-nous nos offenses, comme nous pardonnons aussi a ceux, qui nous ont offensés,
et ne nous soumetez pas à la tentation, mais délivrez-nous du mal.
Car c'est à toi qu'appartiènne, le régne, la puissance et la gloire, pour les siècles des siècles.
Amen.

Je vous salue, Marie, pleine de grâces,
le Seigneur est avec vous, vous êtes bénie entre toutes les femmes,
et Jésus le fruit de vos entrailles est béni.
Sainte Marie, Mère de Dieu, priez pour nous pauvres pécheurs,
maintenant, et à l'heure de notre mort. Ainsi-soit-il.

Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!

No, you will not remember your Mother that way. Trust me, you need to remember some typical way your Mother expressed herself, then use that vision to remember your Mother and what she would say to you at times. I know this works because I lost a much beloved aunt whom I found six days after her death. I chose to remember how she would park in my driveway and walk up to sit down on my covered porch and set her big purse down with 'Aiyo' ... a word I suppose she picked up while in an Indian ashram. That vision has my Aunt's beautiful smile and I can go to it whenever I'm missing her ... and you will definitely miss your Mother, so do this thing to share with her a memory constructive to your psyche, because she will want you to do that for her!

Pax vobiscum

May your mother rest in peace in a better place, may you be reunited again, and may you be comforted.

I lost mine suddenly and unexpectedly 41 years ago, my that is such a long time. She was 64, I was 26, and I've never forgotten how she looked and the horror of waiting in that ICU. Even though I was somewhat prepared for it, it was a terrible shock, and I grieved for months which contributed to a breakdown because I hold things in. I'm thankful she lived to see two of her five grandchildren and had about as nice a life as it is possible to have in this world.

At the time, her good friend said it was better that way; it didn't make sense really, and I was making plans to take care of her when she got better; it was not to be; I see how she couldn't have gotten better and wouldn't have wanted it that way. It's one of the hardest things you go through. In time, the pain really does ease and you can go on with your life, but nothing is ever the same again.

Later as I lost my father and another relative who lingered longer, I'm thankful now she was spared more suffering; her suffering was relatively brief. Be thankful your mother didn't have to suffer much, if at all.

I'm so sorry for your loss.

I am sure that a mother who you felt was as perfect as a mother could be will have left you with countless wonderful memories and those will be what you keep with you.

A prayer for the repose of her immortal soul and for God to comfort you with his tender mercy, and give you peace.

I’m so very sorry for your loss, marthamaria.

I can tell you from experience that the good memories will replace the bad with time. The shock and raw pain will last for a while, but you will come to realize that your mother will always live in your heart. She left her love there for you. That love doesn’t go away. Try to focus on the good and trust God to help you cope with the necessary adjustments this loss will cause.

We are here for you, and you are being held close in prayer.
God bless, strengthen, comfort, and be with you as you mourn, and in your every need. Prayers for all your family.

that is much too young(younger than me) .. and I am sure you are just torn in a million pieces right now. You have a lot to sort out & confront. Sudden deaths of loved ones I think are much harder than the long slower(cancer etc) ones..

Her spiritual walk is something you must explore. and yours also..

Love & prayers for peace & wonderful memories...

mom is special & the love you shared will always be there. Mom’s give their legacy... it is never broken
