Pregnant after IF
My Mom passed away
My Mom passed away this morning from complications due to lung cancer. It was kinda sudden. She had started her chemo last week and then this past Friday had some bad side effects from it. She was admitted to the hospital on Sunday and had begun to turn around. Last night around 9 or 10 she began to go downhill and there was nothing they could do for her.
The worst part is that this all happened in Buffalo about 1800 miles away. I am completely heartbroken and I don't know what I am going to do without her. These were to be her first grandchildren and I am so devastated that they will grow up not knowing her. She was just so excited for them to be born and told everyone that would listen about them.
I don't think I will be able to travel for the funeral...my entire family is insisting that I stay here...that she would not want me to put the babies in jeopardy, but I feel so guilty.
Thank you for listening.

I'm so terribly sorry. I'm sure everyone (including your mom) will understand that you can't travel. Would it make you feel better if someone could take a laptop and you could watch via video cam?
I wish I had some magic words to make things better but will send virtual ((hugs)).

I am so, so sorry.
I agree - that I am certain your mom wouldnt want you to put yours of the babies lives in danger.
Your babies will grow up to know about her - share all your wondeful memories with your children. DD has a picture of my dad in her room and she asks a lof of questions. His legacy lives on thru me. As I know your moms will thru you.
Many thoughts and prayers for you and your family.

OMG I am so heartbroken for you! I even put into words the sadness that I feel for you right now. I have lost my brother and even thinking about not being able to attend his service ... I can't imagine the anguish and torment you are going through right now about it on top of just losing your mom. My heart is with you girl.
Thoughts and prayers go out to you, your mom and your family. May you find peace in your decision. ((HUGS))
