Hi there peeps! Don't know if anyone was wondering where I've been, but I am back now. I posted once or twice the last week or so, but for a month or two (or longer) before that I wasn't on the net much. I'm back on now, and hope to be more active on the forum again. :)

Where have you been? You get stuck in a snowbank or something? :D

Titans still suck.......
I saw that! (and yes, they do - very sad)
I've been out of town for part of February. For the moment, I'll be stuck in Nashville as my parents head south to Florida - and I'll be dealing with Round Two of ice the day they leave. The winter storm moves in during the afternoon and it's supposed to be a doozy. Lucky us in Nashville. Not.

rewoT91 and I have wanted to tell everyone what has happened but just couldn't face it. First though I want to say I'm so sorry or all the troubles and pain so many here have had. So many people and so much pain.

Our mom passed away February 12th. She had dementia and had been in a home for three months and was slowly becoming more reserved and withdrawn but still seemed content. Then December 28th she had a ruptured bowel and had emergency surgery which went well but 10 days later had to have surgery again for an infection. She never really recovered and went down hill slowly. February 12th her bowel twisted and burst again. She was too weak and worn out and would never had lived through surgery. She died with family around her telling her how much we loved her. It was peaceful and pain free.

We're sorry we couldn't share all this as it was happening. We needed to focus all our attention on Mom and her care. We had nothing left for anyone or thing else. We know that you will all understand.

Love,
gniknehpets and rewoT91

With sincere condolences you two, and like Spidey said, your Mom is at rest now - hope you are slowing healing. I still keep my Mom in remembrance when praying and it has been almost 14 years already.

I am so very sorry your momma had such a struggle, and I am so sorry you had to watch it. It is such a helpless feeling when life goes into a free fall and there are no breaks to stop it all. I am glad you had each other, and others surrounding her with love. Many hugs to you both. RIP momma.
