Good-bye Mom!

My mother-in-law (first marriage not current marriage) is in hospice, shielded from considerable pain by drugs. She is not expected to live more than a few more days.

I bow my head as I think of the women she was. Surviving with one child while her husband was in the South Pacific, fighting for our country in WWII.

She survives the deaths of both of her parents, the death of her husband, sister, brother, daughter and one grandson. Though it all this woman with an indomitable spirit kept on deeping on.

I can have no greater respect than this. Good-bye mom!
