My deepest sympathy. The truest love a person will ever know is their own mother. For the best years of our lives were spent in their arms. May she rest in peace and may heaven welcome her with the warmth and joy she did for you.
She is my prayers as is the rest of your family,

-Martin

thank you to everyone that has sent their nice messages. It is really appreciated....Right now is kind of a hard time, but to be honest it is kind of easy. We have known for months now that this day was coming up on us. And we could tell it was getting sooner and sooner, we knew....It wasn't a struggle. She was breathin really rough at about midnight this morning....then at 5 when they woke me up her breathing was more steady and was slowly goin down...at about 633 she took her last breath. The thing about it that doesnt make it as hard is that we all had the chance to say goodbye and say what we wanted to. and i think that helps a lot. Its really hard yet i am kind of relieved because this cancer has been haunting her for 2 years. SHe first contracted lymphoma in her face, went into remission for about 1.5 years and then one day i woke up and she was really really weird....like not there...id say almost on drugs or something...once my grandparents took her into the hospital they found 3 tumors in her brain. The thing that i am so glad for is that one of the tumors had gotten the nerve cells so she did not feel them at all...she never even had a headache. Soon after that she had 2 more appear. This last phase has been going on since march when the tumors were first found. she has not been her same self since about 2 years ago....yes i miss her a ton but i know she is in heaven looking over me right now....probably admiring the fact that i like my car so much since she is hte one that helped me get it....so thank you everyone for the support and sorry about this kinda rant i had to get it off my chest and it felt good just typing how i felt....thanks everyone.....


ps i will be absent thursday night and friday due to the wake and funeral...the funeral is schedule for 10 am friday at First United Methodist Church in St. Cloud MN

Godspeed crazymom. I know you'll be able to pull things together, and get what needs to be done, done. As you have been for the past few months.
