My Mom's 9th Day of Death

For Roman Catholic individuals, they believe that the 9th day of death makes the soul roam around between heaven and hell. The soul does not know which place is he or she going at this point in time. According to their beliefs, he or she will know the final destination on the 40th day. With the help of prayers for my mother, we continue the novena for the dead until Wednesday.
I visited the Pink Sisters' Convent and Chapel (Baguio City, Philippines) as seen in this photo. It is a place where my mom claimed that I was smiling and laughing aged 3-month-old.
Do you still remember your fond memories with your biological parents?

I'm positive you don't have to worry about where she'll spend eternity, Shavkat. With a good son like you, she can't go anywhere bad.

@Shavkat I'm sure they're happy together. I'm glad you think of them as your angels. I'm sure they look down and watch over your family.

Since I don't know my biological father, I don't have memories of him, but I do have some good memories of my mother.

Your mom was a good soul and she would end up in heaven.
I have tons of memories with my mom and I pray for her long and healthy life so that we can have many more. I am grateful to God for such a loving mom.

@Shavkat I do make sure that I do it..Mom is 62 now and will retire next year. She is miles away from me and I make sure that I talk to her everyday over phone or video calls

@Shavkat Yes. I am happy to do that. I need her to be my emotional support. We never outgrow our parent's love.

That is new beliefs to me being a catholic person. Well, I was gone from the Philippines at my early years soI don’t know a lot of belief there. Yes, I still remember a lot of fond memories with my parents.
BTW, my heartfelt condolence to you and your family.
