Well mom its just you and me

We were zitting in church 5 weeks ago and I heard my phone viberate.  I went out to take the call.  It was the nursing home to inform me that within hours my mom would die.  We had just been home for 2 weeks and she was improving.  So we had returned to Florida.   We rushed to get home driving through the dark to get home before mom died.  We got there and she was still alive.  Why my brothers and sister left her alone to die alone I will never understand, but there she lay breathing hard yet alive.  I got there which I  have been thankful that I did and I got in bed with her holding her, talking to her, sharing my love to her.  For the past 2 1/2 years after she became worse I spent as much time as possible.  The nursing staff was good they came and turned her ever two hours, and made sure there was room for me to get back in bed with her.  This went on through the night.  I put her arm around me as I held her close. Around 625 that morning her fever went to 105.  They stripped the covers off her put cold towels on her.  At 633 I watched her taked her 2 last breaths.  She was gone.  My mother, my mom, my friend was now in her Heavenly Home.  After the nurses and drs had all left and as I sat in the chair beside her, my words to her were Well, mom it started with me and you and it ended with me and you.  You see, I was her first born and her only child by a different father.  It was one month yesterday and i feel very alone.  Love you mom your daughter, Sandi
