In reply to the discussion: Sad news about DUer secondwind. [View all]highplainsdem
(62,623 posts)36. {{{{{MaltaBlue}}}}} I'm so sorry to hear that your mother has
crossed over. But I believe that she was healed and free of pain the instant she crossed, and that you will see her again.
She posted some of her botanical watercolors here years ago. Unfortunately her Photobucket account is gone, but Steerpike reposted one that's still here, in this thread - https://www.democraticunderground.com/1028268 - where Skinner had also given her artwork a thumbs-up.
Picture her healthy and young again, surrounded by the beautiful plants she loved. I believe that is her reality now.
And thanks, SCE, for letting us know, and for keeping her daughter in touch with DU this way.

I had been in touch with her until late April. She had been my neighbor and we were friends.
