Oh Crone, I am so sorry for your loss. But I am so pleased to read that your mom had the opportunity to say her good-byes. I hope that your family shared many happy moments which they can now treasure. You and your family are in my thoughts.

So sorry. Pancreatic cancer can be very slow and painful, glad your Mom did not experience that, nor did your family.

I'm so sorry for your loss, crone I'm glad that it was slow enough that she got to say her goodbyes, but quick enough to mostly spare her suffering.

Tonight mom died. I got there an hour or two before and she smiled when I said I was there. She slept most of the last two days but her mind was good up until a couple of days before when she has been hallucinating some and talking to her stuffed animal. The cancer wasn't painful as expected so didn't need morphine. One day less than 3 weeks and most good days. Dozens of visitors and no unfinished business so the best that could be expected from terminal cancer. Crone I am so sorry. My heart goes out to you and your family. I'm glad that your mother was able to see people and know how much she was loved. I'm glad that she wasn't in pain.

I am very sorry for your loss. I am glad that everyone was able to spend some time with her over the last few weeks and that you were able to be with her at her passing.

Thanks everyone for the condolences. Last night we had to approve the cremation and go through her things to decide what to do with things. Mom decided who should have the things that were important and we let them take them when she said they could have them unless it would make the room too bare. So we put post it notes on the promised things and anything we could decide who to give them to. I need to take a truck to get her desk, stereo, tv and one picture. I took a few little things like pictures. We piled a bunch for charity or trash but a few things left undecided. I am hoping the boy in the national guard might want some things like maybe the desk, stereo or other furniture that I didn't really want but he is at a firing range for a couple weeks. He and his girl friend will stay with his parents in a two bedroom townhouse but when the next boy gets back from this mother's in 5 weeks he needs his room back so the 21 year old will need to move. He is trying to buy a house with his VA benefits but doesn't have everything he will need. I have too much stuff so hope the boy wants some.

I'm sorry to hear this as well. My grandmother and my great uncle's daughter both had pancreatic cancer. May you find peace in the coming days knowing that you were able to spend her final days with her and that she did not suffer at the end.
