and to Allah,our creator,we all shall return ...well on thursday eve my brother in law,Michael passed away of grade 4 brain cancer,as well as pancreatic cancer.Tonight,at 8:15pm my beloved Mother,Claire died from colerectal cancer that had spread,after surgery and 6 months of chemotherapy.My brother in law died in the nursing home,on hospice.My Mother chose to die at home.I am kind of numb right now.Usually i would buckle emotionally,but somehow through the grace of God,i am maintaining right now.I'm able to be present for my family.I seem to be taking it a breath at a time.I pray for both of them,as well as my family.I don't know how I will respond when we lay them to rest into the ground,this week,but I can't speak for tommorow.Only right now.I haven't been able to cry at all.Insha'allah(God willing),I will at some point.Please keep myself,them and my family in your prayers,if you are so inclined to prayer.Thank you for letting me post my thoughts.

Dear, There are no words to express my sorrow in hearing of your loss. A person lives on only in the memory of those who loved them, because of your love, your brother and mother lives on -- The good thing is the memory to your mother and brother for ever! The memory is deep in your life at all, and it will not go away. It may fade a bit, but they will always be there with you. Beside you. Their influence, Their words, Their encouragement, their support will always be there. I will Pray is on special today for them. Take care yourself! Yiuly

Loss is always such a great expenditure of emotions, to grasp understanding, which can carry their spiritual giving, forth in our lives... What we have, to hold to ins the feelings, the thoughts, and the moments we shared their lives and they shared in our lives.. they thought much, even when we did not know we were learning from them, but as our learning from them, they become too, a part of us, thus, their bodies may no longer maintain, the spirit within that laugh, that smile and those many many words exchanged embedded deep within us, a part of whom they are.. they found as life presents, such opportunities, to embed and bury and merge part of their spiritual realism, within us, their smiles are apart of our smile, their thoughts, are part of our understanding, and their tears are part of our strength... As we move to let them go in the physical sense, they become even more within the internal, spiritual sense of being part of us, more prominent, more everlasting meaningful and by such means they help guide us as we walk, when they have long left the physical bodies they utilized to spread the seeds, and flowers of their spirit.. the days, when the picture of their laughter, comes, the thoughts of their wisdom reflects and as it quiets over time, into just being a part of us... we find .. as we let them go.. we can smile brighter, and love more deeply,.. as they thru all their living teaches us deeper meaning.. and within such... their spirits carry forth.. May you feel the blessing and the warmth of what they have instilled of themselves within you, as you, being to them a worthy vessel to carry the parts of their spirit, they so entrusted to become a part of you. giving them .. eternal presence within what is your living

It is difficult to know what to say when one wakes up to find someone going through such a torrid time. Be strong, as ever. The tears will come in their own time and probably at unexpected moments. All of your family need each other now so there are no rules for any of you. Be prepared for others to react differently from yourself and be understanding of their needs too, as I trust they will be of yours. You will all be in my thoughts... they are my prayers. May your God go with you.
