That January 23rd, 2002 will always live in infamy for myself.
Mom was quickly losing the race of maintaining life for it was slipping away.
What makes me believe Mom was very coherent is the nurse was asking her questions and responding gave the correct answers.
Mom knew she was in intensive care room one.
Mom didn't have to be told much of anything she knew I was there the day before for she squeezed my hand to let me know she know it was myself.
At the day of the viewing was the worst time I had imaginable .
The tears flowed so much Mr. Lee had to comfort my heart I was taking it so hard.
Today Mom is more coherent than ever and rightly so.
The pain I had gone through will not have to happen again for Mom is most secure and in Heaven to stay.
