I don't want to be a downer for everybody. Her name is Cynthia McLaud. Think of her heeling today if you'd be so kind.

The end of life...is hard to find reward in, but not impossible.
Today is the 8th anniversary of my mothers death.. she died of emphysema...and yes she was a smoker.
She was a strong, intelligent and driven woman.
As my sister and i sat next to her on the bed, and i listened and watched...her take her last breath...i was completely surprised how that..pause...after the last breath, as we waited to see if she would take another... that pause...it was exactly the same as the pause after one of my three children were born and we waited to hear their first breath of life..
How fascinating it was and that pure moment...i felt timeless...i felt life as a non ending thread...
It was an honor to be there with her for her last breath..
i miss her.. i love her..
