In my last post (April 24), I said Mama wasn’t going to make it. Just before 11 pm that night she quietly passed away in her sleep. I told her that day to stop fighting and let the pain go. I said Dad and I love her and would hurt and miss her, but we’d be ok. It was time to be with her parents and brother in paradise. She finally did let go.

I won’t lie and say I’m doing great, but I am doing better. I’ve really be struggling with my faith. Well, not exactly my faith, because I still believe in God. The problem is, I’ve been so mad at Him. In fact, I just went to another funeral on July 3. My aunt, Mama’s sister, finally passed away after months of suffering from brain cancer. I’d say my whole family has a right to be mad. But I’m working on it. I don’t want anger to eat at me, so I’m slowly making peace. In my own way and time.

I made a blog about my mom. There’s not a lot there yet, but I’ll be filling it with memories, stories and the occasional picture. If you’re interested, the url is http://tale.heartwhispers.com/.
