Words
Words are spoken, sometimes written. Often times we can only wish we've said more.
We have struggled so much in 2020. The covid 19 really threw us for a loop and so many didn't know what to do . Ourselves we tried to protect our elder family by avoiding in person contact. My mother and disabled sister live 100 feet away and we kept our distance trying to protect them. In retrospect, I wish we didn't.
Well about 3 weeks ago my mother was having difficulty caring for herself and most importantly, my disabled sister. We had to disregard anything we were told by the experts and care for our families. It was incredibly painful to see how quickly things changed in the past 3 months without being in constant interaction.
My mother passed away this morning with me and my wife by her side. My sister is now our child who lives with us and we will care forever. My wife who is a nurse will now become a stay at home caregiver.
Our heads are spinning but we are grateful the pain was short and she is with my dad and other sister in a better place then the heck on earth we are dealing with now.
The peace is also that they can all and always see our homes and family where they lay to rest and have built generations.
Time is far too short to let anyone stand in your way.
Peace and tuna
