Grungehead

I haven't been posting much lately as she had terminal cancer and my sister and I were honoring her wishes to spend her final days at home instead of in a hospital. I'm so grateful that I am sober and was able to be there holding her hand at the end as well as make her final days more comfortable. There's no way I could have done that if I was still drinking.

Also my deepest gratitude goes out to Hospice and the great caregivers that helped us through this difficult time.

So sorry for your loss. I lost my sister to cancer and all her suffering is over. She, too, is in a better place. Glad you got to be by your mom's side. Hope you find peace.

I am so very sorry, Grungehead.

You have my sympathy. And my admiration for remaining sober. My mom's terminal illness and passing away put me on the skids. I regret not being clean and sober for my mother in those last days.

Sorry for your loss, Grunge. I went thru much the same with my Dad a few years ago. Allow yourself some time to grieve. Such experiences can strengthen our resolve to stay sober.

Sending up prayers for you & your family, Grunge. I'm so proud of you for staying sober & keeping a clear head through it all.

My condolences. One of the gifts of hospice, that family can carry with them all their lives the time and care they put in before death. It helps shift the grieving process in a healthier direction and I know it meant the world to your mom. Take care of yourself here for awhile, treat yourself gently.
