    I know this isn't really the place, but

    So many people I know are here...my little sister died tonight. She had been in end stage MS for three years - and in and out of hosp with pneumonia or lungs filling up. The last time was this weekend...and even back at the care centre, her breathing became laboured overnight, everything piled up, and just shut down...she was surrounded by love and family, and was out of it too, so went quickly and peacefully.

    I'll post this in General below...sorry, Karen...maybe just leave this here for a bit?

    She is free of her prison and pain and struggle.

    Oh Catty, I'm so very sorry. It's never easy losing a family member. Please accept my condolences and prayers. Thank God she had a peaceful passing. One of my favourite sayings is "No pain in Heaven". RIP little sis...your wings are waiting for you.

    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Oh, I am so very sorry. Losing a loved one is a lousy feeling. But you are right, she is free of all her chains. She is playing with all of your past family members- skin and fur.

    hug all you want..

    I'm loss at words... I'm (((sorry))) she had to go, glad it wasn't by more pain.

    please know, for what I've been through, I still definitely will find time, you in my thoughts and prayers.

    a question if you can/I may, were you close with her? I hope you got to see her for last time too.

    all ((((((gentle hugs)))))) you need - take care of yourself!
    rest and sleep softly sweet locke..

    Catty my heart goes out to you, I can't imagine what it must feel like, but she is in a better place, free of her pain and suffering like you said. You will be in my thoughts and prayers as well as your family. Your sister must have been so strong dealing with MS, it is such a terrible disease and it is great that her family was there to see her pass and im sure she felt their presence. Take care of yourself, and lots of hugs.


    Thank-You Kay (Kfamr) for the beautiful signature!

    Please se the thread in General, it's here just to keep one place where people can post.

    I'll close this now, Catty, just so you don't have to keep checking both threads.
