I feel so bad to hear about your mom, Helene. Please accept my condolenses. Try to remember the good times that you had, this will help ease your pain. Remember, also what the bible tells us, that soon Gods kingdom will bring an end to death, and return the dead back to life here on earth. This can comfort and give you hope.
