That is how I felt as well it was not my mum in the nursing home now she whole again. It was sad that it happened on Christmas Day for me but in way a wonderful present for us both.

For her to go on she was only was only going to deteriorate more mentally and physically. She is in a much better place now.

Thank you both so much for your confirmation of what I truly believe. My older sister and I were laughing at the prospect of our dad saying to our mom, "what took you so long" .. it was good to laugh through our tears.

One of the things I thought of first was the fact that my mom had changed from a dem to a repub (and my dad was a very strong repub). I can only imagine their conversation.

Thank you all again for your prayers and comfort.

Perhaps your mums are together in heaven, sharing tea and talking about the both of you!
