Dying is a lonely journey. Not only for the sick person but also for the family. As hard as we may try to avoid death, the truth is that we do a lousy job of it. Science and medicine will certainly postpone it, even staying healthy might seem to delay it, but the harsh reality is that death does not wait for you, it does not ask you, and it does not listen to you. Death ignores your feelings and wants; you do not matter to death…Death is the only certainty in life! We need to remember that our existence here is fragile, and we never have as much time with people as we think we do. If there is someone or someones out there that you love, don’t neglect that and don’t put off engaging with them because waits for no-one… Vic's Journey ended on 18 January 2013 at 10:35. She was the most courageous person in the world and has inspired thousands of people all over the world. Vic's two boys are monuments of her existence. She was an amazing mother, daughter, sister and friend. I will miss you today, tomorrow and forever my Angle Child.
Mom’s Hugs
“Mom’s hugs are like peanut butter and jelly sandwiches – they’re sweet and they stick with you a long time.” Anonymous
Vic would hug and hold… I hug and release….
Vic once told me I am a lousy hugger. It was said in jest, but I know that Vic loved hugging for that extra couple of seconds (or minutes). She loved feeling loved and treasured.
Vic taught her boys to hug. She taught them to say “I love you”.
Vic hugging her late fatherVic raised “huggers”. I am so grateful!Vic and I always hugged and held hands.Vic hugging her precious son…A precious moment between Vic and Jon-DanielWe come from a family of huggers. Here my Dad and Vic are hugging.
Vic’s love was like a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. It left a wonderful aftertaste and stuck for a long time.
I am a sixty plenty wife, mother, sister, grandmother and friend. I started blogging as a coping mechanism during my beautiful daughter's final journey. Vic was desperately ill for 10 years after a botched back operation.
