Comment from Karen Cherry Threadgill
I swear I had already reviewed this. It is lovely and warm, blissful, sweet, tender, and chock full of love.
I imagine your momma now has a perfect voice to sing with. My momma also could not sing well. My daddy and me sang very loudly to drown out her and my sisters. Our church had no choirs and no instruments. Acapella only. They sang as loud as they wanted. It made them happy. Karen

Thank you.
It's God's ears, not ours that matter.
Sometimes I have reviewed posts and forgot to hit the button at the bottom to save them. Very frustrating when I thought it was an exhaustive review.

What a powerful piece and excellent entry for the Dreaming contest. It is creative, imaginative and the emotions are palpable. Great job and I found no areas where improvement could be suggested. Good luck in the contest. ann

Thank you.
I debated entering a contest based on such a real, meaningful event.
Comment from Tom Horonzy
First, I appreciate your entry. The first week sowed little interest and I wondered if I erred in creating this contest.
Note diabetid is in the last sentence of para three. Shouldn't that be as diabetic in the following paragraph?
I lived the nightmare with my mother-in-law. It's a diesease that needs addressing so others will be less apt to experience it.

I can' t believe that spelling got through. I feel like it was mysteriously changed on me. Hah!
Comment from Claire Tennant
What a sad but beautiful tale of struggle and faith, of determination and trust, of control and faith.. No, repetition here, I meant all that: A clear message of hope in Jesus, but the frailties of human nature are present. I shed a few tears, but what a blessing your mother was. I wish yo well in the contest.

A very moving story, and a well-written one. A dream of your mother in heaven, leading the choir, and with perfect harmony and joy, that is indeed a wonderful thing to envisage.

A moving and heart-warming piece on your mother. A tribute to her life and bravery. Well done on having the courage to write this; it must have been tough. And good luck in the competition.

I hope it helps someone with the decision whether to let a loved one go.

Your very well written and tender story has taken us from the very dark and evil illness of your mother to a place of song and beauty. Thank you for educating us a little on this devastating disease and for sharing your very personal story. Best wishes and
Peace,
