Carol has left the building

Mom died Friday August 21st at 5:30. The nurse called me to say she was almost ready. By the time I arrived she was gone. That's ok, I had been earlier and spent time with her while the whole group of nurses were doing the hula in the patio. The CNA's kept coming in saying "DOESN'T SHE WANT TO GET UP?" Umm no I don't think my mom wants to hula into the afterlife. I wonder if anyone has ever done that? Anyhow, the neptune society has her and I will get her back in about a week. I am going to take about a T of ashes and put them in a small vase in her miniature roombox. Now she can live in the box she was so proud of. I have no idea what's going to happen after that. I have zero unfinished business. I had some nice times with her at the end and I am very grateful. Jeffrey took it a little hard, Jason is still pretty young and doesnt' quite understand except "grandma won't be mad anymore" Dave is very supportive. I'm glad it's finally over. Exactly 1 month ago she started down this road. I thought it would be longer than this but I'm glad she is finally with my dad in heaven a new creature happy and HEALTHY again.

thanks agian for the love and support.
