This is what I wrote and read before she passes.
Dear Mother,
I just want to thank you, for some of the things I inherited and learned from you.
Because I was born to you…
I am artistic!
I am out-going and gregarious
I am warm and compassionate.
I am creative!
I am also “hooked” on jewelry!
I’ve learned to appreciate the finer things in life.
I have learned about my Hungarian roots and what a czardas is.
I know how to be organized.
I have a sense of style and design. (Of course!)
I know that the secret to a successful marriage depends on mutual respect, trust, and being considerate of the other’s feelings.
These are the things you taught me that helped me grow.
These are the things I’ve taught your grandchildren, S---- & M---.
For these things, I thank you. I love you. N--.
Did you write your goodbyes? Did you read them aloud to your dyining relative?
I'm glad I did. I can accept her death because I had a chance to tell her how I feel.
Did you?
