Her whole family, and all who knew her, are in deep mourning for her loss. She was so loved because of her big heart. My mom fought cancer on and off over twenty years, she was the bravest, strongest, most determined fighter I ever knew. She was and remains my hero. She fought so hard to get just well enough to fly home to say goodbye to her family before she passed, but her body gave out before she could do that. She ended up developing pneumonia on top of the two cancers and horrific pain she

...was already battling and her body gave out very quickly. The doctors dismissed her when she told them for days that she couldn't breathe and they said it was just anxiety. They didn't discover the pneumonia until hours just before she died. I wasn't able to talk to my mom for two days before she died and then I never got to say goodbye.

...nature, loving heart, huge smile, and welcoming presence. She was tiny but fiercely strong. I have felt her presence, but my grief is overwhelming in all honesty. The world is off balance now. I don't know yet how to navigate without her. I hope you all who were praying for her know she's at peace now. Perhaps you would be willing to pray for her family, because all of us are big messes, not just me. Thank you for your love, support, well wishes, good energy, and prayers over the last months.

My mom knew about you all, and she loved my art and Recolor, she loved this community, and I can't thank you enough for whatever peace, lessening of pain, or strength your help may have given my mom. I am indebted to you. All my love, Andria.โค๐๐๐ข๐คโค

I am so sorry!! Even when we expect the inevitable, it is still a breaking shock to our system! Your mother is free now and she is with you!! Talk to her, she hears you and will reveal her presence in signs ... watch for them. She came into this life willing to suffer in effort to reach those who needed to learn by watching her ... a selfless act of her soul! She passed her strength to you and you do her proud!

Loss is never easy. But, the pain eases after the shock. Go at your pace ... not anyone else's. Feel your sorrow, feel your anger and feel HER love!
She has departed, but she has not left ... talk to her out loud ... she will help you through this!!
Love to you and your family ... we are here if you need us!!
