I"'.m going to be o.k. Mom, it is all right to go!" said her son email this discussion to a friend?

My GF who died of cancer was buried yesterday. After the funeral, freinds were invited for refreshments and I was able to speak to Michael - her 13 year old son. he told me that a short while before his mother died, he lay on the bed beside her and cuddled her.a He told her how much he loved her, how grateful he was to have a mother like her and that he would never forget her. He then told her that he was O.K. with her leaving him and that it was all right for her to go.

He said that she then smiled and touched her cheek for a kiss. He gave her a kiss and then his Dad kissed her. She smiled again at them both and her sisters who were there and with one last look at them she quietly died.

I was so impressed with Michael - he is going to an incredible man when he grows up.He has been receiving counselling on his mother's sickness and now her death.

I don't know of any young person who could have handled this, in the way that he is handling it, without God's grace, do you?

This truly made me cry, I didn't want to read it because it's sad, but that woman's son is truly an amazing person. She must have raised him very well. How are you feeling? I know that you have said this was a friend of yours.


myLot reputation of 99/100. cynthiann (3036)   ranked 132 out of 38,039 in life  8 months ago

The service was amazing but after speaking with Michael I feel happy that she went so peacefully. I forgot to say that she spoke to several people in her family who had previously died before she actually died. I will miss her so much but I am also comforted that she did not die in torment at leaving her son. she wasn't scared of dying but of leaving Michael and he reassured her that he was going to be okay. I am humbled by his handling of his mother's death. Her is truly remarkable

Gosh, that is so brave of him! He sounds like a very mature young man and I know he'll be just fine. That had to be special for her hearing him say that because as a mother you know she had to have concerns about that. What a loving and gentle way to be able to leave this life. God's grace is definitely upon this young man.


myLot reputation of 99/100. cynthiann (3036)   ranked 132 out of 38,039 in life  8 months ago

Yes, she comforted him - that is the miracle in all of this. She could go because he told her that he would be fine. Many thanks for responding

hi cynthiann thats really amazing to read and I really do hope Michael will receive the help he now needs so badly. Having to grow up without his mom now and hope he always finds people who are kind to him and listen patiently even when he tells them for the 1000th time how much he misses his mom or shares the same well remembered moments over and over.


myLot reputation of 99/100. cynthiann (3036)   ranked 132 out of 38,039 in life  8 months ago

I went into shock when talking to him. hough he had counselling from Christian counsellors this is so mature. Not many adults reach this level of maturity. He is only 13 - this is a miracle that he was able to do this and let Barbara go peacefully

That is wonderful. I just know this set his mom at ease. This young man is more grown up than his years. He will be a fine young man.
I only know a few people that are like this children and adults a few of each.
They will go a long way in this life.


myLot reputation of 99/100. cynthiann (3036)   ranked 132 out of 38,039 in life  8 months ago

He is so special. He really is. Barbara and his Dad did an amazing job with him. He will get through his grief and move on eventually but never forgetting what a wondeful Mom he had

You just made me tear up reading this. I am glad that he was able to let her know that before she passed. I am sure knowing that made it a little bit easier on her to leave him. I really hope that he is ok without her. He sounds like a great kid.


myLot reputation of 99/100. cynthiann (3036)   ranked 132 out of 38,039 in life  8 months ago

I rally feel that he counselling helped him so much. He wil always miss her but he will never forget her and I truly believe that she wanted to hear him say that to her. The ocunselling will continue but it took away his anger when she was dying and helped him to cope. He is an amazing boy. My children will be weeping and crying when I die - this is why I planned my funeral!lolI will miss her so much but I know that she died in peace.

This is a very sad but inspiring story. I am sorry for your loss. Children can be so amazing and strong when they need to be. I am really impressed with kids during times like this particular situation. I can only pray that I do as good a job with my son as your friend has done with hers.


myLot reputation of 99/100. cynthiann (3036)   ranked 132 out of 38,039 in life  8 months ago

From we spoke I have been in awe of Michael. I will miss her so much and will be there for her son if he needs me. He is so remarkable. going to do something amazing with his life on earth

i am sorry to hear that, and i know that sometimes i am sorry's dont help, but my grandfather who raised me died when i was 10, my mother was never around and neither is my dad, my grandparents are all i had.. but my grandmother told me that when someone dies it is because god needed another angel.. so i pass that on to you. the boy sounds amazing and by the time he grows up he will be prepared for anyways life takes him,
god bless.


myLot reputation of 99/100. cynthiann (3036)   ranked 132 out of 38,039 in life  8 months ago

He is an incredible young man and I know that he will not depart from the ways that were taught to him by his mother. Your grandmother was right - God does need angels. Bless you

Hi cynthiann~ I am typing this through tears. This young man
is so wonderful and brave! What he did for his Mom is so
unselfish and he gave her the most precious gift by letting
her know that it was ok with him for her to let go. How
amazing for a 13 year old to understand something like this
and be able to cope. You are so right, he is going to grow
up to be such an amazing young man! God Bless this entire
family, but especially young Michael for being so brave and
selfless!

Opal, I wish that I had a scanner and then I would get osmeone to put on Mylot a photo of the two of them together. Michael is incredible. At he reception he would talk to his classmates and then go back to his Dad and hug his Dad. He circulated the room speaking to almost everyone he knew. I really believe that God has laid His hand on Michael - whaT HE DID WAS THE MOST WONDERFUL ACT OF LOVE THAT ANY SON COULD DO TO A MOTHER WHO WAS IN TORMENT - NOT AT DYING, AS SHE WAS STRONG IN HER FAITH, BUT AT LEAVING HIM BEHIND. HE REALLY IS SO SPECIAL

JUST REALISED THAT I AM TYOING IN CAPITALS AND DO NOT HAE MUCH TIME ONLINE SO CANNOT RETYPE
