I"'.m going to be o.k. Mom, it is all right to go!" said her son  |
|
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?

1. SomeCowgirl (8010) | 8 months ago | 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.

cynthiann (3036) | 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

2. lumenmom (868) | 8 months ago | 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.

|
cynthiann (3036) | 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

5. book1962 (14518) | 8 months ago | 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.

cynthiann (3036) | 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

6. moondancer (2923) | 8 months ago | 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.
| |
| |
|
|
cynthiann (3036) | 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

7. lilybug (15297) | 8 months ago | 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.

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.

cynthiann (3036) | 8 months ago | 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
