Karen & Lynn: Sending you positive vibes in a very tough time for your family. Unfortunately, I know the helplessness and pain you are feeling at such a terrible time to endure. My Mom lost her battle with cancer in September of 1998. It was the hardest thing I ever witnessed and lived through as it was for all my family. My sister and I were there in the final week, and with many unknowns surrounding her condition and how long she would go on in her unconscious state of suffering, after several weeks of little observable change, we reluctantly returned to our (somewhat) normal lives. My sister returned to her out of state home and I made the agonizing decision to follow through on a trip I had planned for some time. My Dad remained at her side until her last breath. It was almost as if she held on as long as she could to hold on to the presense of the entire family as long as she could, and when we left, she slipped away as well. It was labor day weekend. Very late on that Saturday my sister and I, in our separate locations, received word from my Dad that my mom was gone. Ironically, my wife and I were in Atlanta for the Brothers run at the Fox Theater, and when I returned to my room at the Georgian Terrace across the street after that evening's show, the message from my Dad was waiting for me. We all flew back home right away. My Mom said her silent goodbyes to my sister and I, and finished her life alone with my Dad after 47 years of marriage. I guess it was for the best, considering all the suffering and complications. All my sympathy, warm thoughts, prayers and healing vibes to Lynn, Karen and the entire Bomberry family. Peace...
