Oh Lynn, I'm so sorry to hear about your Mom. Out of my own recent journey down the same road, I offer my heartbreaking wisdom: make every moment count; in amongst all of the rushing around "doing", remember to stop and simply "be", because there comes a patch of road in this journey when "being with" becomes the most important gift we can give; love her, love her, love her - don't hold back, let it just pour out of you - and let HER love pour into you too.

There are many heart-excruciating days ahead, but Lynn, this time you have with her is so precious and blessed and gift, so be courageous, take one step, one day at a time, and try to come here often to let us be your pillars of strength and encouragement (and if you can't come here, KNOW to your innermost being that we're still here praying and loving you throughout this journey).

Let your "light and love" guide you into the most amazing journey we can ever make with a loved one.
