mother passed away - pro recording help needed

Dennis- What a great testimony of your love for your mother- that will never die. I hope that music can soooth your soul in your grief. Many of our best muciscal friends have been deeply moved in their own losses and left records (excuse the pun) of their own journeys, to help us in ours.

Grace and Peace,

Jim

with the utmost respect: your mother's essence will live on, both in you and through you. you will see aspects of her in your children someday, and this will make you smile and remember those things about her you held most dear. others in your family will point out in you those wonderful characteristics of hers that you learned or inherited. i lost my own mother on april 30th after a long senescence and was priveleged to be the one with her when she passed. as a physician practicing a far from perfect profession i offer my sincerest condolences given the unfortunate circumstances that led up to her untimely demise. i offer a humble prayer for her, and also for you in your time of need.

My Deepest Heartfelt Sympathies Dennis, as such a tragic loss did not have to happen. I know having lost my Father at a young age of 55 three years ago under similar circumstances, that in time the wounds to the heart will heal. The early stage of grief is the toughest period to understand and overcome. But you never really loose a Parent. Your Mother will be with you daily, and in time your current sorrow will move towards cheerful thoughts of rememberence. I am truely sorry, & my thoughts are with you. I can assure you that it will get easier my friend.

Dennis,

I understand how you feel, as I also lost my mother a year ago. She entered the hospital for a certain operation and everything was fine. Can you beleive that on day 3 after her operation, she had almost recovered fully, and we were all in her hospital room, I had brought my Epson projector and we all enjoyed family photos projected on the wall, and celebrating her ''recovery''and looking forward to her return home. Something unexpected and weird happened the next day - her condition worsened and she passed away 5 days later. In my estimation, a mistake by the hospital staff also. I was torn between sadness and madness and frustration. 5 days later still, everything was over in a flash with the funeral service and all, it it was just like a bad dream.

However, many people pass on much to soon - kids, babies. Accidents, desease, drunk drivers. It does not make our loss easier to take - but it helps put it in perspective when our parents go, although there no way to prepare for such events.

I really beleive that the departed - and this shortly after they have left us - do come back and provide an inner voice that is conforting, and for many, actual dreams at night that are so real and vivid that you do feel good and feel a ''presence''. I think we must give a chance to those departed the chance to come back and enrich our lives in a different,spiritual, but no less meaningfull way. And they do come back when some of the emotively-charged dust has settled......Good luck and don't give up ! Think of what your mother would appreciate that you do right now...probably to take care of yourself and live life to the fullest, she will help you if you let her.... Regards, Mike.

Thank you Lugnut.
