Hotmark777 0 Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 I got a call at 9:34pm (california) from my sister in Boston, who informed me my Mother past away tonight at 11:03pm (Boston time). She was great lady, she had alzheimers for the past few years and wasn't herself, this is a situation where she was probably better off. She had a stroke earlier in the day and held on till late evening when she finally gave up.Some of you may ask why post this on DN's Poker Site? Because I spend alot of time here. It is where I hang out, and is something I would share with people I hang out with. Link to post Share on other sites

profligate 0 Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 I'm sorry to hear that. I lost my father this past September to brain cancer, which caused major memory issues for him. It was hard on everyone, but it was also better for everyone in the end. Thank you for sharing. Link to post Share on other sites

MyPlayIsRAB 0 Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 i dont mean to take the attention away, but its situations like this, where both of us have both our parents and both are older (60s for me) that you think what it would be like to lose one. i cant imagine the sorrow one would feel for a loved one passing Link to post Share on other sites
