Hello all, just wanted to update everyone on whats going on in my life- Easter Sunday my mom passed away quietly in her bed. She was suffering from liver damage and finally on sunday her pain and suffering ended. We talked briefly last week on how she wanted so bad for her pain to go away and how mad she was that all the medication and drugs she was on had taked over her life- she wanted so bad to be healthy again but both she and I knew that what she was feeling was far beyond repair and that things would only get worse. She opened up to me that day and expressed the fact that if something were to happen that she would wanted to be cremated and her ashes cast away into the mississippi river. She use to tell me so many stories of her younger years when her and her friends would go up on the levee and smoke and talk about their troubles and how all her friends past had their ashes cast away there also- so this friday me, and my 2 brothers and grandmother will obey her wishes and cast her ashes into the river so then again she can be reunited with her friends. I am so glad that her pain and suffering is over and that she can finally be at peace. All I ask is that you please pray for my younger brother for he is taking it the hardest. I would also like to say something to my mom-
Mom,
As I grew up you were consestently the supportive face in the crowd. You were unselfish with your time and energy. You were always humble, never did you turn to material possessions to prove to others what you were worth. You taught me to be compassionate and nonjudgemental to others. You made our house a home, you recognized the awesome gift of family, you were everything, a mother, a mentor and awesome person and we are all blesses to call you ours. I am grateful for the life you gave to me and the many memories that we created.I owe everything I am to you. I am so proud of your strenght and bravery. You need not suffer anymore. God has called you home and he has given me the grace and peace in my heart to let you go. I say good bye with no regrets. I love you deeply and miss you dearly- Your daughter Kristyn
