I really like the description ("peaceful transition"). I do believe our lives are journeys and there is more to come. It's terribly hard when you lose a parent -- only because of the everyday personal communication just isn't there. Or, is it? I think this "transition" is like going through a gate. Just wait, that gate opens for all of us. Can you imagine how much you can share then?

losing both my parents in 2 months is depressing. everytime i take a step forward, I fall back 3 steps. I didn't think it would be this hard at 55 years old.

I want to thank ever one for praying for me and your kind words, I don't think I could have gotten threw this without all of you. My mom died last night, yesterday, we played her music from her favorite opera Madame Butterfly. The wake and burial is this week.
Thank you again for all the support and understanding.
