Jessie,
My heart goes out to you and your family. You are one of my dearest friends here in Austin, and I cannot imagine what you are feeling right now. Please just know that I am here if you need to talk, to vent or just a shoulder. May your mother rest in peace in the presence of Jesus and the Saints. I may not be able to make it to the rosary for her tonight because I don't get off of work until 7PM, but I will say my own rosary for her tonight. Give me a call if you need anything...even someone to keep the boys for a while. I am so so sorry. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
