Don’t run out and call the nurse. Don’t pick up the phone. Take a deep breath and be present to the magnitude of the moment.<p></p>
<p style="background-color: white; color: #464646; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">There’s a grace to being at the bedside of someone you love as they make their transition out of this world. At the moment they take their last breath, there’s an incredible sacredness in the space. The veil between the worlds opens.</p>
<p style="background-color: white; color: #464646; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">We’re so unprepared and untrained in how to deal with death that sometimes a kind of panic response kicks in. “They’re dead!”</p>
<p style="background-color: white; color: #464646; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">We knew they were going to die, so their being dead is not a surprise. It’s not a problem to be solved. It’s very sad, but it’s not cause to panic.</p>
<p style="background-color: white; color: #464646; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">If anything, their death is cause to take a deep breath, to stop, and be really present to what’s happening. If you’re at home, maybe put on the kettle and make a cup of tea.</p>
<p style="background-color: white; color: #464646; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">Sit at the bedside and just be present to the experience in the room. What’s happening for you? What might be happening for them? What other presences are here that might be supporting them on their way? Tune into all the beauty and magic.</p>
<p style="background-color: white; color: #464646; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">Pausing gives your soul a chance to adjust, because no matter how prepared we are, a death is still a shock. If we kick right into “do” mode, and call 911, or call the hospice, we never get a chance to absorb the enormity of the event.</p>
<p style="background-color: white; color: #464646; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">Give yourself five minutes or 10 minutes, or 15 minutes just to be. You’ll never get that time back again if you don’t take it now.</p>
<p style="background-color: white; color: #464646; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">After that, do the smallest thing you can. Call the one person who needs to be called. Engage whatever systems need to be engaged, but engage them at the very most minimal level. Move really, really, really, slowly, because this is a period where it’s easy for body and soul to get separated.</p>
<p style="background-color: white; color: #464646; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">Our bodies can gallop forwards, but sometimes our souls haven’t caught up. If you have an opportunity to be quiet and be present, take it. Accept and acclimatize and adjust to what’s happening. Then, as the train starts rolling, and all the things that happen after a death kick in, you’ll be better prepared.</p>
<p style="background-color: white; color: #464646; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">You won’t get a chance to catch your breath later on. You need to do it now.</p>
<p style="background-color: white; color: #464646; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">Being present in the moments after death is an incredible gift to yourself, it’s a gift to the people you’re with, and it’s a gift to the person who’s just died. They’re just a hair’s breath away. They’re just starting their new journey in the world without a body. If you keep a calm space around their body, and in the room, they’re launched in a more beautiful way. It’s a service to both sides of the veil.</p>

You ache for her but you will no longer be blessed by her presence. She’s dead and a piece of you is dead too. She slipped away quickly. She slipped away before you could get all of her insight, her knowledge, her memories, her expertise. She slipped away before you could tell her everything. </p><p><br /></p><p>She died with things left unsaid, because let’s face it, there is always more to be said. Always more hugs to be given. Always more memories to make. Always more left to say, to know, to wonder.</p><p><br /></p><p>In her absence I find myself yearning for answers to the questions that pierce my heart and soul. Sometimes in the middle of the night, sometimes while in line at the store, sometimes while driving down the road, these questions pop up and remind me of the harsh reality of her death. She isn’t here. She can’t answer. I won’t know. </p><p><br /></p><p>But it doesn’t stop me from asking…</p><p><br /></p><p>Did she know that her smile could light up a room? That I would still remember it like I saw it yesterday. That when an image of her pops in my head, her best accessory is always her smile.</p><p><br /></p><p>Did she know that her influence is endless? That we would listen to her with intentionality now that she is gone and honor her in every way possible. </p><p><br /></p><p>Did she know that she was loved? Truly loved. A love so deep, so pure, so effortless, that it occupies a part of our heart and soul that no other love will ever replace.</p><p><br /></p><p>Did she know how many people admired her, looked up to her, and would miss her when she was gone? Did she know the amount of people that saw her as an inspiration?</p><p><br /></p><p>Did she know how much she changed our lives? Did she know that even from the grave she’d be pushing us to be the best version of ourselves? That even from the grave she’d be inspiring us and motivating us to live our best lives?</p><p><br /></p><p>Did she know that she was more than a mother? That she was the best teacher, friend, counselor, nurse, and so many others. </p><p><br /></p><p>Did she know the many roles that she played in our life? Did she know how many empty spaces she would leave behind?</p><p><br /></p><p>Did she know that she was my hero, my person, my everything? </p><p><br /></p><p>Did she know all that she was? Did she know all that she was loved for? Did she know her greatness, her never-ending legacy, her joy?</p><p><br /></p><p>Did she know that she can’t be replaced? That she can’t be forgotten? That she is missed so fiercely it changes the composition of our heart?</p><p><br /></p><p>If not, I’m telling her now. Wherever she is. Whatever her view. I say...</p><p><br /></p><p>Mom, you are loved and missed more powerful than words can describe. You were everything and remain everything. Your smile, your laugh, your touch and your life, are irreplaceable. You are the holder of a piece of our hearts. You are the keeper of a spot in our soul. Your absence hasn’t changed your importance, it’s solidified it. You are and have always been our everything. </p><p><br /></p><p>xox, Chels</p><p><br /></p><p>Written by Chelsea Ohlemiller.</p><p>Originally published here (2019): http://hopeandharshrealities.com/did-she-know/</p>ExecutiveWebDesignhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09351182795073969415noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6511551141348692232.post-66994948401232761782022-07-23T18:15:00.001-04:002022-07-23T18:15:22.440-04:00You Don’t Just Lose Someone Once…<p> You Don’t Just Lose Someone Once…</p><p><br /></p><p>You lose them over and over,</p><p>sometimes many times a day.</p><p>When the loss, momentarily forgotten,</p><p>creeps up,</p><p>and attacks you from behind.</p><p>Fresh waves of grief as the realization hits home,</p><p>they are gone.</p><p>Again.</p><p><br /></p><p>You don’t just lose someone once,</p><p>you lose them every time you open your eyes to a new dawn,</p><p>and as you awaken,</p><p>so does your memory,</p><p>so does the jolting bolt of lightning that rips into your heart,</p><p>they are gone.</p><p>Again.</p><p><br /></p><p>Losing someone is a journey,</p><p>not a one-off.</p><p>There is no end to the loss,</p><p>there is only a learned skill on how to stay afloat,</p><p>when it washes over.</p><p><br /></p><p>Be kind to those who are sailing this stormy sea,</p><p>they have a journey ahead of them,</p><p>and a daily shock to the system each time they realize, they are gone,</p><p>Again.</p><p><br /></p><p>You don’t just lose someone once,</p><p>you lose them every day,</p><p>for a lifetime.</p><p><br /></p><p>Donna Ashworth </p><p>From ‘I wish I knew’: https://amzn.to/3JVMJlZ</p><p><br /></p><p>Art by Clouded Dreams on Etsy </p><p>Clouded Dreams Studio</p><p><br /></p><p>#griefquotes #grief</p>ExecutiveWebDesignhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09351182795073969415noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6511551141348692232.post-4088165559912708302019-04-13T19:16:00.002-04:002019-04-13T19:16:37.262-04:00Ivone Rodrigues<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Audrey was always known as “Gramma” or “Mumma” to everyone. She was a remarkable, selfless woman who taught us all by example. She was hard working, compassionate, tireless, silly, sarcastic at times and above all, loving. An amazing woman, with a strong faith in God. She lived her life loving Him and pouring that love out to everyone she met. A trip to the grocery store was a chance to reunite with old friends and meet new ones. Her eyes would dance when she looked at you and she had a gift for drawing people into conversation and made everyone she met feel at ease. She was playful and would challenge anyone to arm wrestle any time, anywhere! </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Steve W. Rapoza, age 59, of Brockton, <br />
died Wednesday July 20, 2016 at
Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital. <br />
He was the loving husband of Susan L.
(Harris) Rapoza. <br />
Born in New Bedford, Steve was the son of <br />
Donald and
Jean (Roderiques) Rapoza <br />
of Dartmouth. He was raised in both New Bedford
and Brockton, <br />
and was a graduate of Brockton High School.
Steve was a loving <br />
husband, father, son and brother. He passionately loved
his children <br />
and took great pride in their accomplishments.<br />
Today they are
all committed to Jesus, following his <br />
example of putting Christ first. He was
most proud of that.
<br />
Steve loved music of all kinds. Cars, clothes and fashion <br />
were also at the top
of his list. If he wasn’t shopping for himself, <br />
he was shopping for someone
else. He was a kind, compassionate man <br />
who was a loving, giving friend to
many.<br />
Most of all, Steve loved to sing, and was a talented vocalist. <br />
He sang in
bands from the time he was a young boy, but his greatest joy <br />
came when he
was able to sing in church for the Lord. <br />
He was involved in Easter Musicals,
Choir and Solo Ministry. <br />
He always said singing for the Lord was the greatest
blessing of all. <br />
Nothing compared. Music was the language of Steve’s soul….
<br />
He strived for excellence in all that he did. <br />
He always believed you should give God your best, and he did!
<br />
Steve is also survived by his children, <br />Nicole Jones of Bridgewater, Rayce, Bryce, Blake <br />and Layla Rapoza all of Brockton; two sisters </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Diane Rapoza of
New Bedford and Wendy Rapoza of Jamaica Plain; </div>

nieces Jean Marie and

<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 16px;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Samuel P. Andrews, 14, of Hanson died on May 11, 2016. <br /><span style="color: #333333; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal;"> Sam was the loving son of Philip J. Andrews of Hanson, Melissa M. Andrews and her partner Jared Royse of Chelmsford. He also leaves behind his loving sister, Abigail Andrews of Hanson, and his younger siblings, Logan Gonyea, Ella and Jay Royse of Chelmsford. In addition to his parents and siblings, he is survived by his grandmothers, Phyllis M. Andrews of Hanson, Sandra Andrade of New Bedford and many aunts, uncles and cousins. <br /><br />He was born March 5, 2002. Sammy was an 8th grader at Hanson Middle School. He was a rambunctious boy that loved riding ATVs, dirt bikes and an occasional lawn mower. He took many family trips to Vermont. Most recently he went on an RV trip across the Southwest states. As most kids his age, he liked playing video games, hanging out with his friends and country music. He was known to have an ungoverned sense of humor. He was happy and proud to be a trusted helper to his grandmother and especially being rewarded with a brownie (without nuts) or a very large bowl of ice cream. Sammys presence brought true joy to everyone who loved him, a sensitive soul who asked for so little but gave so very much. <br /><br />Visiting hours will be held Sunday, May 15, from 2-6 p.m. in the Blanchard Funeral Chapel, Plymouth Street (Rte. 58 at the rotary), Whitman. His funeral service will be held Monday, May 16, at 11 a.m. in the Chapel.<br /><br />Following the service, Sammy will be laid to rest beside his Grandpa at Fern Hill Cemetery in Hanson. <br /><br />In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Sams honor to </span><a href="http://samaritanshope.org/" rel="nofollow" style="color: purple; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; outline-style: none; padding: 0px; text-align: start; text-decoration: none;" target="_new">Samaritanshope.org</a></span></span><br />

They say it takes a minute to find something special in a person,<br />
an hour to appreciate them, and a day to love them,<br />
but it takes an entire lifetime to forget them.<br />

You will be missed just be sure to have the Nova ready and we shall ride together again. Love always<br />

Susan F. (Geddes) Love, age 73 years, of Stoughton, peacefully passed away unexpectedly surrounded by family and beloved friends on Monday July 27, 2015.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
Raised in Hingham, the daughter of the late Dorothy (Campbell) Geddes and H. Paul Geddes Sr., sister of H. Paul Geddes Jr. (Natick, MA) and niece of the late Jean Campbell, Mary Elizabeth Campbell and Raymond F. Campbell. A graduate of Hingham High School, Susan attended The Chandler School for Women in Boston and pursued a career in office administration. Soon after graduation, Susan married Robert Bruce Love (Weymouth, MA) and raised their family of four children in Stoughton: Merideth Scott Love (Hull, MA), Matthew Ryan Love (Weymouth, MA), Robert Sean Love (Nantucket, MA), and Michael Thor Love (New York, NY).</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 10px;">
Blessed with an immense heart, a warm, caring, engaging personality, and a beautiful "gift to gab", she made friends wherever she went. She enjoyed the ocean and loved visiting her daughter Merideth and soon to be son in-law Jeffrey Shaheen, and "Grand Dog" Cisco at Nantasket Beach. She also regularly enjoyed visiting her son Sean and girlfriend Shannon and her "Grand Dog" Cash on Nantucket Island. Susan was fortunate to have enjoyed world travel with her daughter and friends. Constantly surrounded by family and friends, she shared her caring ways, nurturing soul, and loving heart. Susan was a spit fire. Bursting with energy, full of life, she loved to be around people. She was a straight shooter, as honest as it gets. She was full of laughter, and hilarious to those who knew her. She had a way to laugh it off and move on with her day. She exemplified the true meaning of unconditional love. We have lost an amazing person, but have gained an angel.</div>

<span style="background-color: white;">Peggy was the loving daughter of the late John E. and Pauline E. (Robichaud) Yanuskiewicz and spent her life in Bridgewater. In 1971 she graduated from Bridgewater-Raynham where she excelled in gymnastics and tennis. She continued her education at Bridgewater State College and later earned her master's degree from Fitchburg State. She had a 34-year career as a physical education teacher at Bristol-Plymouth Regional Technical School in Taunton where she helped so many of her students. Peggy loved camping, musicals at Providence Performing Arts Center, volunteering with Special Olympics, amusement parks, traveling to Martha's Vineyard, cruises, picnics, "The Wizard of Oz," "The Three Stooges," and just "being a goober." She wanted to be remembered as a good person. Peggy was the loving wife of 29 years of Leonard J. Baczek of Bridgewater. She was the devoted and beloved mom of Victoria L. (Baczek) Best and her husband Raymond of Duxbury; stepmother of Nathan P. Baczek and his fiancee Danielle Hutchins of Braintree; sister of John and Linda Yanuskiewicz of Plymouth, Paul and Patricia Yanuskiewicz of Stoughton, Francis and Peggy Yanus-kiewicz of Franklin, Mark and Diane Yanus-kiewicz of Calif., and Matthew and Kim Yanuskiewicz of Conn.; aunt of Beth, Kristen, Joseph, Brian, Lauren, and Carolyn. Also survived by many dear friends and former students. Funeral was from the Prophett-Chapman, Cole & Gleason Funeral Home, 98 Bedford St., Bridgewater, Friday, Aug. 8, at 9 a.m., followed by a Mass of Christian burial at St. Thomas Aquinas Church, 103 Center St., Bridgewater, with burial at St. Thomas Aquinas Cemetery. Visitation was held Thursday, Aug. 7, from 4-8 p.m. Per Peggys wishes, please help her family celebrate her life by wearing only vibrant colors to both the wake and funeral Mass.
