När jag hälsade på henne på måndagen var hon trött och hade svårt att äta. Det blev transport till sjukhuset på kvällen och på tisdagen blev hon ännu svagare, hon orkade inte kämpa längre.

Jag, Wiveca och Karolin var hos henne de sista timmarna. Hon hann känna smaken av en färsk jordgubbe på sina läppar och det kom ett litet leende när hon såg trädgårdsblommorna som Karolin plockat åt henne. Nästa precis klockan tolv på dagen tog hon sitt sista andetag.

Vi kommer alltid att minnas henne som mycket kärleksfull och omtänksam, hon ville oss alla väl.

My dear mother Inga Ebbesson passed away at lunchtime June 22, 2010. She has suffered a lot of a wound in her leg that hasn’t healed.

Last week they made a surgery to help the circulation in her leg and tiny body. It wasn’t a big surgery and it went by quite well. But she has been very tired and weak the last weeks.

 When I visited her at the nursery home in Höganäs Monday at lunchtime she didn’t want to eat very much. After lunch it was decided that it was best to take her to the hospital in Helsingborg. I was there and even if she was weak we could talk and also had some smiles and laughter.

Tuesday morning I spoke to the hospital and she had been very worried during the night and hadn’t slept well. I went to my job first to do some work but they called soon and asked me to come. She was even weaker and they were afraid she shouldn’t mange this much longer. The hospital is only five minutes away from my job so I just went there. Wiveca and Karolin came from Ängelholm bringing some garden flowers and strawberries (not from our garden). She loved strawberries and garden flowers. She managed to get some small zips from a strawberry and hopefully she could taste it one last time. There was hint of a smile when she saw the flowers.

She was calm and her breathing became slower and she took her last breath almost exactly 12.00 holding my hand.

She looked very peaceful and now she doesn’t have to suffer anymore. She was always very careful and loving and we will miss her and her laughter a lot. But she is in our hearts for ever.
