I've brought what Ren Allyn posted at unschooling.com so she won't have to
repeat it here.

Hi all,

Not to be a downer or anything, but my Mom died this morning at 4:30am. It's
been an intense few days...it's good to come here and feel connected to
something outside of my family for a minute! A side distraction can be
helpful sometimes.

The funeral is Saturday and I would really like to share Jan's poem with my
family. I had copied it and lost it in the rush to get up here.

I tried to e-mail you Lisa, to ask for you to send it again, but I don't
think the e-mail went through.

So I'm here asking for it again!! Thank you in advance.

And thanks for the kind words Dee. I am a bit overwhelmed with "always
learning" e-mail digests and think I'll just put it off for another day!! Too
much to think about right now, everything seems a bit surreal, YK?

I keep expecting her to walk up the hall any moment...my mind hasn't accepted
that I won't see her again even though I watched her slipping away in the
hospital.

I suppose it will sink in when I don't get anything in the mail for my
Birthday this year...ugh.
Mother's day will never be the same, will it?

I'm not going to be here much for a bit...but it does my heart good to skim
through the posts and feel a bit more connected!!!

Take care everyone,
Ren

Her address is  starsuncloud@...

Thanks for letting us know, Sandra. FYI for everyone...I had a copy of that
poem Ren was looking for and have sent it to her email.
