Life comes at us with a vengence sometimes

Sometimes I don't think we really know how to handle situations.

Life just seems to come at us full force.
Mom is declining steadily every day. She lost her ability to walk. All I can do these days is cry. Alicia is crying too, we are all crying. It is so sad to watch her just die. It is so unfair.
My Sister and Brother are grieving, my children are grieving. My granddaughter is grieving.

Mom doesn't quite know why everyone leaves her room in tears. Maybe she does know... but she shows no emotion ... NONE! She doesn't cry, she seldom giggles anymore, she does rub her mouth when too many people are in her room, talking over her.

I have everything settled and in place for her now... I can go back to work, and give my all.

Hospice is in place, IIAM has been called and in place, Alicia is prepared to take over during the day and I will do it in the evenings when I get home.

Life comes at ya fast! That's for sure!!!!!!!
