Allison Wright Obituary, Death – In a tragic turn of events, Chris’s mother lost her battle with dementia and passed away last Friday night. In the few times that we were able to visit her, it was difficult to witness her suffer because her disease had taken away so much from her. Our hearts are filled with consolation by the knowledge that she is now able to rest in peace, despite the fact that it is never easy to say goodbye.
If I had the opportunity to speak with her right now, I would express my gratitude to her for bringing into this world one of my most beloved individuals and for caring on my wonderful children. Over the course of the past year, we have been confronted with the brutal reality that life is short and that our days are numbered on multiple occasions within close proximity to our homes.
I remind myself to take a few deep breaths and remind myself not to worry about the insignificant things that are bothering me because I know that one day none of them will matter. I do this almost every day. As of late, I came across a video clip that was taken from an interview that Patrick Swayze had right before he passed away. His thoughts kept going back to one of the final lines from the film Ghost, which was when his character was stepping into the light and commenting on how much love he felt. He added that his mind kept going back to that statement. It is the only thing that we are able to bring with us when we go.
