My mother has taken a downward turn. We were well aware and knew that there was no other way for her to go. We have seen miracles by having her live this long. And miracles to have her return to being mentally sharp and alert. Very true, real miracles indeed. Oh but I love my mom so dearly. No matter how this story unfolds, I will miss her deeply! I ache deep within my heart and soul. I feel anguish to the core of my being. My mother and has always been my everything. And the loss of her being with us will be incomparable to anything and irreplaceable to me her daughter.

I am very homesick tonight. I just want to go home!
