My aunt passed away

She died this afternoon. I know this will sound terrible, but I'm glad. I'm glad that she is at peace now and doesn't have to live like that any longer. There will be no memorial service or funeral. She wanted to be cremated and she didn't want any kind of service at all. We've made all the arrangements.

My sister and I are going up to our dad's tonight to tell him.....she was his sister and his only surviving sibling.

I'm OK. Honest.

Thank you for your thoughts.

My prayers and sympathy go to you and your family. I know what you mean, my mom died last month and I watched her go downhill for a long time. No one should go through that, but I was relieved when she passed and I am convinced that she was to.

Aww Winchester

I'm sorry she passed but I understand how you feel, watching someone suffer is harder than going on without them sometimes.

My mom used to say all the time "It is not wrong to pray for death" and she was an extremely religious woman.

I totally understand not wanting her back to suffer like she did.

God bless her.

My thoughts are with you and your family. I'm sorry

I'm so sorry hun but I can understand your thoughts if your Aunt was suffering, still doesn't make it any easier that a loved one has passed. xx

Sorry for your loss, but glad she's at peace. I understand your feelings.

Take care,

Cally

I am sorry for your loss.

It is not terrible at all to want someone to love to no longer suffer. I am thinking of you and your family sweetheart.

I am sorry to read of your aunt's passing, but I totally understand what you're saying. My condolences to you and your family during this time.

my thoughts are with you and your family, Pam!

Sorry to hear the news of your aunt's passing, but like you said, it was a blessing. She can be at peace.

Sorry to hear about your aunt's passing. I understand your feelings though, its better to not keep watching them suffer.

Thinking of all who loved her.

So sorry for your family, but glad your aunt is no longer suffering.

I'm so sorry

Having working in longterm for eight years and now working on a med/surgery/oncology floor I understand why you didn't want the suffering to continue. And I am truly sorry for the pain you all will feel in her loss. I will be thinking of you.

Sorry for your loss, but as you said she is at peace now and no longer suffering. Hugs to all the family.

My thoughts & prayers are with your family now

Thank you. Thank you for your kind words and thoughts. And thank you for being here. I'm going to miss her.
