She held the phone to Mom's ear so I could tell her I loved her! Priceless
Jillian was the on-call nurse the evening my mom left this planet. I left my mom's bedside at 6:30 pm to head home. I had to leave because I don't drive at night. That was tough as I knew Mom was very close, and it was my final visit. It was the right thing to do. Jillian phoned me around 8:45 pm and reported mom was very close. Wow, such a lovely call, and she was with Mom! She made me feel so comforted- we hung up, and within 5-10 minutes, she phoned me back, telling me mom was taking her last breath. She held the phone to Mom's ear so I could tell her I loved her! Priceless!
