Oh Janet, my heart just breaks for you. I still have my mom, but I was closer to my grandma than my mom and when she passed, it was so hard. Like your mom she had a stroke and was in the nursing home for 3 months before she died. I was a nine hour drive away, so I only saw her twice in that time. Her death was bittersweet and by that I mean, I was so glad that she was no longer suffering, lying in that bed, unable to get up or even talk. On the other hand I didn't want to let her go and it was so hard, so very very hard. In the end though, I think I was more relieved that she was no longer suffering, than I was sad she was gone. It makes me teary eyed now to think of these memories and she left me in 1989. I'm so sorry you are having to deal with this.
