Hello everyone. My husband's mother passed away last night. We got a call she was being rushed to the hospital at 5:15 p.m. yesterday evening. He began to drive that way. We were under the impression that it was dehydration. Unfortunately, that was not the case. It was a long ride to the hospital from where she lives and by the time they reached the hospital she coded. Sad to say after many traumatic hours of coding 6 times in 3 hours and trying to save her she could no longer hold on. I made it right before she passed. Two of our children were pulling in. It was almost a 2-hour drive for us. She was 72 years old. Her name was Carolyn. It was so sudden and totally unexpected. She apparently had pulmonary embolisms in both lungs, and one went to her heart. She never mentioned she was feeling any certain way. She just said she didn't feel good, but she had her teeth pulled for dentures recently and we all assumed it was pain and not feeling good from that.
He just keeps saying I can't believe my mama is gone. So, if you could please lift up our family at this time I appreciate it much.
With Love,
Chrissy T

ReplyDeleteI am so sorry for your loss, Chrissy. Keeping your family in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteChrissy, Sympathy and prayers for your husband's mother and family. Loss of family is not easy to go through as well. Been there in October when my brother David passed away. So grateful for the promise of heaven through Jesus Christ our Savior.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness. I am so sorry. What a shock for your family. Sending love and hugs and thinking of you all.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry for this huge loss, and that it was so sudden. Praying for all of you.
ReplyDeleteI’m so very sorry for your loss. This is so sudden and heartbreaking… I can imagine how overwhelming this must be for you all. (I know it by experience)
ReplyDeleteI want you to know that when I read your message early this morning (my time here in the Netherlands), I prayed for you right away.
Losing her so unexpectedly, especially after already walking through the loss of his dad, makes this even heavier. My heart truly goes out to your husband... that shock of “I can’t believe she’s gone” is so real.
Praying that the Lord will carry you, surround you with His peace, and hold you close in these difficult moments. Sending you so much love 🤍
I'm so sorry to hear about the passing of your husband's mother. I whispered a prayer for you both. Take care during this time of deep sorrow.
ReplyDeleteOh gosh, Chrissy, that's heartbreaking, I'm so very sorry. Sending love and prayers to you and your family.
ReplyDeleteOh I am so sorry and sad to hear of your loss. Will certainly prayer for you all.
ReplyDeleteBoth my thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family. Janice
ReplyDeleteDear Chrissy, I am so very very sorry for your loss. I will pray especially for your husband during this difficult time. Sending hugs, Tara
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry for your family's loss and I know exactly what you mean about the difference. People always look at me strangely when I say I'm thankful we had the time to go through cancer with my dad. It gave us lots of time to make peace and say our goodbyes when the time came. It's gentler in a way. Anyway, lifting you all up in my prayers. Our Lord came to heal the broken hearted.
ReplyDeleteOh my dear Friend - my heart goes out to you all. I'm so very sorry for your loss and cannot even imagine what a shock it all has been...especially for your poor Hubby. Holding you all up in prayers of comfort and strength for the days ahead. And sending lots of hugs too. I pray you all feel the hope of seeing her again in our Lord's heavenly kingdom. 🙏🏻💗
ReplyDeleteI'm slow reading posts this week...and just reading this one. Sorry for the heartache you and your family are going through. I am saying a prayer just now for all of you. Praying for comfort and for continued strength in the weeks ahead.
ReplyDeletesending my deepest condolences. while grief is a universal experience, it is a deeply felt emotion & unique to each of us. it is made even more difficult when the loss is unexpected!!
ReplyDeleteDear Chrissy, I am so deeply sorry for Carolyn's sudden passing. What a shock for you all, but especially for your husband. I know that you will find the strength to move through the upcoming days but please, may you both be very gentle with yourselves during this time, remembering the joys and good things of the past through the tears. Sending love and wishes for peace and healing to you all.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry to read that you're dealing with a sudden loss, and what is more important, is that the person you've lost was your mother in law that was so dear to you, dearest Chrissy. I'll keep you and your dear ones in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteBlessings to you
