Pollys mum,
My mother did the same thing. My brother and I finally left for a bite to eat, and she was waiting for that time to go. While I was sitting at the restaurant, I felt something brush my shoulder, and checked the time. It was the exact time of her death.
MeezerMama, my thoughts are with you during this difficult time.
Hugs and purrs.Posted 4 years ago by artistabobbi TX 1/17 #

Meezer'sMama;
I,like KathyAnne,have worked in the nursing field(as an N.A.C.,though)and I became very close with a couple of residents(something they warn nurse's assistants NOT to do!!?)and as each of them crossed over,IT HURT,(..so bad).
Guess that's why they warn people.But I chose to remain close and bear the waves that would threaten to drown me rather than become a professional health care provider turned automaton. That was just my own personal reality tunnel I had to navigate at the time.I think I was in the right field at the wrong time in my life.But I digress here.Like Elene said on the last page,I believe the Lord's sending a welcoming party down to him.The entire Spirit and feel of what you describe is One of Truth and Peace and Light. I wish I could truly convey to you in words how Safe your GrandDad is now!!Be sad and fully let out your Grief and Anguish,but remember to be Grateful and Joyous for the sake of his Soul and his Creator's name! -
Sometimes it is easier for our loved ones to leave us when we are not there. My mother passed away about an hour after my father left the hospital, and the nurse very kindly said, "She could not pass when he was here. She wanted to wait until he left."
My mother was the perfect lady: she always knew when to leave the party. Sounds like your dear grandfather may be the same way.
And you will see him again.

My thoughts and prayers are with you MeezerMama. It sounds like your GrandDad will go when it is time. I recall in the last day before my Great Aunt passed, she mentioned seeing her parents or someone in the family. Her sister consoled her and said that it was nice that she was being visited by them. The pain is there at losing them but the feeling after the person passes is amazing. The light seemed brighter outside later on that day. My Dad, her sister and myself were present when she passed. The thing I recalled most was that after she passed, I said she was feeling no more pain and didn't have any more earthly more worries.
Hugs and prayers to you MeezerMama and your family. Give your Nana and GrandDad a big hug.

MM, Still holding you close and sending prayers for your granddad and the whole family. My dad was ill and int he hospital and then hospice for most of the summer of '99. One morning in August, I woke up at about quarter till six and thought to myself that I could sleep a little more. Then I had a dream that I was walking down the corridor of a hospital looking in room after room for my dad. I went into one room and got that feeling of someone behind me. I turned around and it was my dad in the doorway. He was being supported by two large men dressed in white. He said, "I just came to let you know that I am all right. I am fine" I was awakened by the phone ringing with the news that Dad passed. He came to tell me he had gone over and was fine. God sometimes grants us these gifts. If I had looked at a calendar I could have predicted the day Dad would die. Friday the 13th! It fit with his sense of humor. Please know there is a lot of love and support coming your way from your friends here.

It was nice last night. He wasn't responding, but he was peaceful. I sang to him and he shed a tear.

Oh! The granddaughter of the lady that is in the room next to Granddad's brought a kitten last night. Cute little tuxedo boy. He snuggled right into Nana's sweater and started to purr. That's the most I've seen her smile in weeks.

MeezerMama - I do feel that there is a reason for everything. Although this is a very sad and difficult time, how wonderful that you have had the opportunity to show your granddad how much you love him AND that you are connecting with other members of your family. Although your granddad will shortly be gone, your life has become richer.
How wonderful too, that he is in such a caring hospice program. Knowing that he is being cared for so well in his last days is such a great comfort.
You're in my thoughts and prayers, and I'm sending loads more hugs.

That is so cute that they brought a tuxedo kitten in to the room and it made your Nana smile at it's purring. What a wonderful visual. That is so sweet that you sang to him and you saw a response of a tear. Another wonderful visual. Hugs, prayers and purrs to you and your family.

MeezerMama, I hope and pray for resolution soon. I'm so glad your Nana got to enjoy the kitten! She surely needs some opportunities to smile right now.
I'm glad that your granddad appears to be suffering no pain; that's a small mercy, in his situation.
As you saw when you sang to him, he is unresponsive but he can still hear. Don't be afraid to tell him how much very much you love him. And if you feel you should share it with him, tell him that you're going to miss him very much, but that he should leave when he's ready; he shouldn't try to hang on for his family. Reassure him that your family will see him again soon enough, and that soon there will be only laughter for him, not tears.
I understand it must be heartwrenching for you to experience. But for his sake, I pray for peace to find him soon.

It really was beautiful last night. I'm so glad I could give him that. I chose my song very carefully.
yet another update
http://jenniferhast.blogspot.com/2007/10/beautifl-moment.htmlWe have been telling him to go with the angels as soon as he is ready. We've assured him that we will take care of each other and especially Nana. We are all praying for it to happen soon.
