Mom has been wanting to "go home" for months, and now she has. I'm more tired than anything else right now. I have grieved for the past week because I knew it was coming. Now we can both rest.

Rest in peace...both you and your mother. You need a rest from the emotional and physical exhaustion of it all.
Mom is eating all cake for breakfast she wants and deserves now!
Yes, you can both now rest, and you both deserve that rest. I'm glad that your mom is where she wanted to be, but sorry for your loss. Take care, my friend.
Oh, I'm so sorry. :( I wish I could be there for you, but I'm a phone call away if you need me. Please call if you need anything.
