A new day

Well I am going totry to keep up this blog or at least have a place to put my thoughts and emotions down on paper. LOL or internet paper.

     My mom died from injuries sustained in a car wreck on HWY 7 on March 2, 2010.  She was my absolute BEST FRIEND.  My life has been turned inside out and upside down.   My mom died along with Bonnie a lady that she car pooled to work with all the time.  Cindy was in the car also but by the grace of God Cindy survived her injuries.  Cindy has a broken leg and can not bear weight for at least 6 weeks, along with some broken ribs that are getting better each day.  Bonnie died instantly in the crash while Mom lived for about an hour after the wreck.  She was sent to KDH where I am a nurse.   She died from a ruptured aorta.  I am blessed that I was lucky enough to make it to her side and let her know that I LOVED her.  I know she heard me because she squeezed my hand and wiggled her toes.  It was that quick and she was gone.  I was the only one with her when she died.  My dad and sister had not made it to the hospital when she died.  One of the hardest things to do was to tell my dad that MOM dying and things did not look good.  After about 15 minutes I asked the nurse Stephanie how long the CPR was going to continue and the Dr. said to us that he needed to talk to us,  it was then I know she was gone,  my life was over as I had known it that morning.   Everyday since--my life is anew.
