Lord,

I am sorry about your mother. I too lost my mother in August of 2008. August 19th to be exact. It is amazing what the human spirit can endure. To lose a spouse and a parent at the same time is so overwhelming. Even though, I am sorry you went through this, it is comforting to know that I was not alone in such a situation.

I agree with you about finding some thing to give back to. It sounds like you have found yours and I applaud you. Hospice work is very intense and difficult.
