"The things that matter most in our lives are not fantastic or grand. They are the moments when we touch one another, when we are there in the most attentive or caring way." ~Jack Kornfield
Today was the day mom transitioned from fighting the fight to embracing the life she has lived. She was transferred into hospice care late this morning and has been surrounded by family and friends almost continually. Under the gentle guidance of Season's Hospice, mom is laying her weariness down and reaping the rewards of love multiplied many times over.
The prayers you have whispered bind us tightly to the One who knows our suffering. For His gain will be our searing loss. Soon.
Throats ache and words tremble as we share our love with her. I am so very aware of the privilege we have been given. There will be no regrets. These are the moments that will silver into joy in days to come.
Breathing through the grief...

praying with and for all of you.
Though we've never met, and I am miles away, I am with you and your family during this difficult time. May you find comfort in knowing your Mom's transition will be peaceful.
Right there with you Jane..Chris
