In 2005 Oma
entered her last chapter of this life-stream. She had been asking Jesus to
take her home for some time but in January of that year after having been
knocked down by three major health challenges, her requests became earnest. Soon
her prayers were answered. Tumors spread through her system,
pressing more and more on her lungs to restrict her breathing. It required an ever increasing
regimen of pain medication to keep her comfortable and as I, her youngest son,
was her primary care-giver I was fully occupied with that task. Taking care of
Oma's
physical needs and helping her to focus on the spiritual aspect of preparing for
her transition was my full time activity for almost a year.
Now Oma has written her
final chapter here on Earth
This has been a very rich time for both mother and I. We were blessed to be able
to be together in our Shambhala and share this special time with the full support
of My Love and our family. I will be writing more about our experience as time
permits. In keeping with a promise I made to Oma, there is at least one book in the
future.
In the meantime we have
assembled some pictures and a few essays which you are welcome to share.
