Your last two weeks was about fighting the big fight due to your health, although you were pounding on the gate for Our Lord to let you in I was pleading for you to stay with all of us who love you. I told you I would understand if you crossed over and left me, but seriously I can't ever be ready to loose you. Our good-byes were all bitter sweet. I wasn't at your home when you arrived and placed inside by the ambulance but felt blessed to hear of your smile when you heard the whistles of the train passing by down the street at the tracks. Carolyn and Melissa said you looked out the big windows and saw your view of the back of the property and recognizing your own fan light above you while lying in that Hospice bed that you looked at the two of them smiling when Carolyn told you were home. God met you and opened the gates of Heaven for you to go with him. I will miss you everyday I live without you, knowing we will be together again. I love you more forever, your youngest Kathy.
