Today, our mother, Mary J. Merrey (aka TillieToiler) passed away. It is exactly 4 months to the day that we received the terminal diagnosis of 6 months or less. It is exactly 2 weeks to the day since she entered the nursing home.

To all you NEWBIES!!!! Please read this profile carefully and do not put your families through the despair that we have encountered over the last couple of weeks. Let me tell you about my mother`s death. I was alone with her in her room at the nursing home. I sat there quietly for 2 hours before I finally realized maybe something was wrong. It looked like Mom was still breathing but she was on her side and her breathing was getting more labored. I stepped out to the nurses station to ask when Mom was due for more pain medicine. I was told it could be anytime.

When I asked about her last vitals, the RN said she would have to ask the girls (meaning the CNAs, bless their hearts). `The girls` came in and took Mom`s temperature. It was 105. I knew right then. I called my sister - told her to come but be careful. I called my cousin who is also like a sister. She said she`d be right out. No one made it in time. I went back to the room and they rolled Mom over. BELIEVE ME it is a picture I will never EVER forget. Apparently my Mom had died several minutes before I even thought anything was wrong. The guilt I feel for not holding her hand, for not calling someone, for not doing SOMETHING is something that I have to live with daily.

PLEASE if there is someone you love, give up this nicodemon. It will kill you. I don`t know if this is appropriate or not, but I thought I would take the liberty of updating Mom`s profile for her. I know she would want everyone to know how much she really suffered, how much we suffered and the lingering suffering and loss we will feel for a very long time. We all love our mom and our grandmother and she will be missed forever.

MAY GOD BLESS EACH AND EVERYONE OF YOU ON THE Q!!!!! KEEP THE FAITH AND THE QUIT!

Barb loved ladybugs and I know she would get a kick out of me using the ladybug candle that I sent her for the picture here. She was so thrilled when she got it. She was such a great friend to those who knew her and she will be missed by so many people.

with a profound saddness, and yet an odd sense of joy, i have to share this with you all:

on wednesday may 15th my quit buddy, goodnightgracie, passed away.

shocked is barely word enough for me, even with knowing for a long time that her health has been less than well. but let it be known she never would let that get her or me down. instead she took me on one helluva a ride when she chose me as her quit buddy as we both decided that smoking was no longer for us.

she was a hard task master, and i loved her for that. she kept after me as i tried to keep after her, sharing with me our desire to no longer smoke, not one, not ever. she made quitting, as she made all things, fun. Laughter was her key, as was mine, and that, i think, made us the perfect quitnet buddies.

i have often said that after me the only reason i have been able to stay quit this long was because of gracie. she will be forever missed by me, as i assume she will be by those of you she touched in her time here at the Q.

i’m guessing i’ll have to stay quit now just to avoid a haunting!

(tossing copious amounts of the freshest.......sparklingest.......love dust.......redgreenyellowpurple.....all over the Lady Of My Dreams, goodnightgracie and i......and any of you who cares to join us..... as we dance soooooooo nakky into the sunset of this smoke free life we have chosen……)

woooooooooooooooooooooooohoooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!

love you gracie, mean it!

now say good night…!
