¹Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions.
2 Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
3 For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me.
4 Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest.
5 Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.
6 Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom.
7 Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
8 Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice.
9 Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.
10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.
12 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.
13 Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee.
14 Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness.
15 O Lord, open thou my lips; and my mouth shall shew forth thy praise.
16 For thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give it: thou delightest not in burnt offering.
17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
18 Do good in thy good pleasure unto Zion: build thou the walls of Jerusalem.
19 Then shalt thou be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with burnt offering and whole burnt offering: then shall they offer bullocks upon thine altar.
So sorry, Kbells. Praying. Is there someone else she could be waiting for? She may need you to tell her it’s okay to let go. Hard to do I know. I did that over the phone with my dad.
Daughter is reporting she’s got food poisoning and is sick in bed. Fearful it may be listeria but is hoping to get back to work tomorrow– she’s supposed to be working 11, now 10, days in a row. 😦
kBells – You may feel relief when your mom passes away. Do not feel guilty about that, it is normal & understandable, & it doesn’t mean you don’t love her enough.
Relief was the first emotion I felt when my mom died, & I did feel bad about that. But I have come to forgive myself because I know I did my best to help & love my mom.
KBells it is never easy. I am so sorry, but like Ajisuun said, she may be waiting to see someone or she may need to hear someone tell her they love her and will see her again one day, but it is OK to go …
The hospice nurse thinks Mama will not survive the day.

She seems reluctant to let go. The nurse says that the worse thing that could happen a partial recovery that will prolong the inevitable
