I'm not sure what or how to feel, but mom was given her last rites.

[imanamerican63]

It is tough, but several of our family are with her now. She is struggling, but it close to the end.

Thank you for all your support and prayers.

[mobeau69]

28. Peace be with you.

[calimary]

29. She'll pass gently with family members surrounding her.

Your thoughts of love and concern will help and comfort her and ease her way if her departure is near.

And who knows? I’ve known elders who received last rites, and then survived for an unexpected extra amount of time.

If and when it happens, imanamerican63, just know we’re here and thinking of you AND her and the rest of your family. It means you may have an extra Guardian Angel getting ready for new wings. Please do keep us posted - if possible.

[imanamerican63]

37. Thank you for your support.

Doctors are keeping her comfortable, but not much else is going to change. They say that her health just deteriorated to quickly.

[Clouds Passing]

30. Give your Mom much love and attention today especially ❤️

[JMCKUSICK]

31. I really hope I'm saying something too obvious imanamerican,

but please remember that for all the prayers and energies being sent your way, If you're not there yet, please trust that those same prayers and energies can go from you to your mom as well. So as you drive to her, please talk to her, pray for her/with her and help her on her journey "Home".
I pray that these events bring your family close together to support one another through this difficult time.
Love, John

35. So hard, I'm sorry

[highplainsdem]

36. Love and prayers for all of you.

I had to say goodbye to my mom five years ago, and between Mother's Day and it being close to her birthday, I've been thinking about her a lot today.

In her last days, we saw her at times reaching out to people we couldn't see. I don't think she was hallucinating. We cross over to love and reunions, and those who are about to cross can often see the loved ones waiting for them. We found comfort in that.

Last rites can be very comforting, too, for believers in that faith. And as was mentioned in a reply above, it isn't unusual for people to recover after being given last rites. The aunt I lost last summer had first been given last rites years earlier.

Prayers for comfort and strength for you and all your family as your mom crosses to love, peace, and reunions, home in heaven.

[virgdem]

38. My deepest condolences to you and your family

at this very difficult time.💔

[Maru Kitteh]

39. I'm so sorry you and your family are going through this. It's excruciating and raw

and feels positively unbearable. It helped me to try to limit my focus to small blocks of time. Just making it through this hour, this evening, this one task. Little bits at a time until I could do more.

Our thoughts are with you.

[Xolodno]

40. I had to give them for my mom.

That was a couple of years ago, she has tenacity to cheat death for some reason. It's rough, plain and simple. Friend of mine had to give them to a relative of his, ours are different than most religions, its very emotional, said it was the hardest thing he ever had to do. Most of the time a minister in our faith is available, but not always, they are volunteer, don't get paid for it and have regular jobs.

Plus side, when they can show up, they usually wander around the hospital and ask people if they want to be prayed for, which they usually appreciate, even though its in Russian.

I've lost a number of relatives and it sucks every time. Don't be afraid to get counseling afterwards, religious or professionally. It's never easy.

[IbogaProject]

41. Just feel

And try and just be present wherever you are during this. So sorry.

[Wicked Blue]

42. I'm so sorry

[cate94]

[70sEraVet]

44. It's tough. I hope you are able to be there at the end.

I was able to be there at the end for my mother, and to take care of the burial arrangements. I hadn't always been a good son, but i felt good about that.
Sorry for what you are going through.

[imanamerican63]

45. All but one sister isn't here yet, but she will be here in couple of hours.

[AllyCat]

46. I'm so sorry. Peace to you all.

47. Hard To Lose A Loved One

This human life is tough. We’re wired to love others, but we inevitably eventually experience the pain of loss. Yet the solace of other connections can help. I hope you are able to turn to friends and family for comfort and support.

[democratsruletheday]

48. Bless you and your Mom 63....

to you and your family on the loss of your beloved mother. We are here with you.

[twodogsbarking]

59. Of course you don't know how to feel. It is something so different how could you.

Hang in and hang on to those closest. Honor those who have passed by being a better person yourself. Kindness is all we have.

[raging moderate]

60. So sad that your mother is dying. YOU surely comfort her.

The great love you and your family are showing for your mother must surely mean a great deal to her in this difficult time. And you helped her get her last rites. That must mean a lot to her, too. May she have a peaceful passing into eternal love.

[Magoo48]

61. Peace

[calimary]

62. Dare I ask how she's doing today?

Hoping for gentle days for you ALL.

[imanamerican63]

63. Resting peacefully.

They have her pretty sedated. Thanks for asking.

[electric_blue68]

64. You can feel any way you want to. It probably be a mix at times. Been there...

It was really hard. Very sureeal.
At least I had/have a wonderful sister to lean on and hopefully visa versa for her.
My mom's was caused by something unexpected, exacerbated by something 20+ yrs earlier. About a week+, at one point she seemed to be much better.

I'm glad some family are w her.
Slow breaths, treasure the (hopefully) good times.

[mucholderthandirt]

65. I'm so sorry. Peach and strength to you and all her family and friends.
