Praying for God’s peace that surpasses all understanding.
And I hope what brings you peace in that you followed doctors' recommendations. You sought what was best for your mother. *Make a pinching motion at your forehead with your fingers, draw your fingers away with the guilt from your mind and heart, and toss it away*
Be easy on you. Be good to you. *hug*
Heaven. Your family did what the doctors said was best. Sometimes it’s just not possible to recover from so much sickness. You should feel no guilt as guilt is for those that have done something wrong. Sending you hugs.
My deepest condolences to you. Try to rest now!
I pray your family receives God's comfort during this very difficult time.
