Thanks for the funeral home link. Maybe you should post it in your first post with an update? I am sure your BYC friends will have trouble finding it if you don't?
 
Brandy,

I'm so sorry on the loss of your dear Mother. You gave each other a beautiful gift, you telling her that she could go and be free of pain and her waiting until you were ready before she did so. It speaks hugely of the relationship that you share. I say share, because it's changed, but it's not over.

You all remain in my thoughts and prayers.
 
My condolences to you and your family.
Through all this, I feel like we all REALLY KNOW you!
You are an amazing person, beautiful inside and out... I'm convinced your mother is proud!

This is Brandy's husband. I have been reading her post from the beginning and it has led some insight into how my wife was feeling and what advice people were giving her. She told me how she felt throughout this ordeal but it could sometimes be better understood reading it as she told it to the general audience. She has a hard time saying things to me at times. She says I just don't get them, I am too smart. I am not sure how true this is but it did help clarify things by just reading them.
It has been a difficult road for everyone involved and I am truly grateful for everyone who has lent their support and advice to my love. BYC was a huge help to her, she was on there most of the day, from the moment she awoke to the just before bed, she is addicted. I do not mind, whatever she needs I will do.
I do not think she told you much of her mother so I will add my two cents. All I can say is that she was a great woman. Her only fault was that she was too accommodating. She made a ham and a turkey every holiday because one son didn't like ham while the other didn't like turkey. Even when she was in pain she would still have all her friends come over to play cards, even though she could barely move after they left.
Then there is me. If nothing else shows how amazing this woman was, how she treated me can give you some idea. Brandy and I started dating in 03, she was in high school and I just started college. Sheryl was not to keen on me in the beginning since she thought I was a little old, but that changed soon. My parents had split up that summer and got a divorce the following year. During the first summer, 03, I stayed with my father. Then the next summer, 04, I stayed with my mother, but it didn't work out. We got along well, it was that my sister liked having the bachelorette pad and I ruined that. Anyway in 05 sheryl welcomed me to stay with them. At this time we were not engaged, but she let me stay because she could just tell how much I loved her daughter. If this is not nice enough she allowed me to move all my animals in with me. Snakes, spiders, turtles and lizards, they took up an entire spare room. Then she let me get the chickens, then the ducks, then the peacocks, then the pheasant and on and on until we reached our present collection. She not only let me have any animal I desired but she took care of them. I never asked her to, they were my animals and I would do it. Every morning though, rain, shine or snow she took water to everything and fed it all. Then anytime I needed help she was there. From butchering chickens to canning sauerkraut to cutting up deer, you name it she was there. She made dinner every night, did the laundry every other day and kept the house amazing.
I am sorry for being so loquacious but there is not enough ink in this world or parchment to put it on to say how truly amazing this woman was. I just wanted you to get some idea of how much she meant to me as well as everyone else and how missed she will be. Thank you all for your kind words and prayers, you have been a life saver.
