She knew you loved her and that's all that matters. She was not in any condition to have that movie moment anyway. Know that she's at peace and that she loved you too.

Quite a thread since its start, Wed Dec 11, 2002.
My condolences ((((( Phoenix ))))).

Oh Phoenix, I'm so sorry.
Just saw your reference to it on Bill's thread and went looking, had missed it at the time.
Take care.
A huge hug for you, Phoenix.
She felt your love all the way through, and is resting now. In peace.
Phoenix, I am just reading your news. I'm sorry for your mother's passing. You took exceptional care of her for a long time.
Thanks for all your kind thoughts, guys. I really appreciate them. Just being able to get on to A2K is really helping, during the rough spots.
my sincere condolences Pheonix.
Ah, reading all these thoughts make me cry. And Phoe and I have never met. And would probably argue if we did, at least as much as we agree. There is, indeed, connection.
I found this, doesn't look good:
Quote:If a beneficiary dies
Let us know if a person receiving Social Security benefits dies. Benefits are not payable for the month of death. That means if the person died any time in July, for example, the check received in August (which is payment for July) must be returned. If direct deposit is used, also notify the financial institution of the death as soon as possible so it can return any payments received after death.
Family members may be eligible for Social Security survivors benefits when a person getting benefits dies.

Beautiful flowers for a beautiful woman.
Thoughts of you and your family.
Oh, I know, Phoenix. I've gone to war with SSA on behalf of my clients MANY a time. The bureaucracy is horrible and the people who work there are way too often overburdened and underinformed. Bleh.
That sounds promising though, I hope it turns out that she's covered.
(just now seeing this)
Phoenix,
condolences and hugs from jes and i...
soz- So far I have not heard from the supervisor. The thing that bothers me is that if it were necessary, I would write out a check to Medicare this instant. I just don't know:
If I have to write a check.
If I do have to write a check, where the hell do I send it????
If I don't hear anything, I may have to go to the SS office. It is about 45 minutes away, and I am not really up to it, but if I have to, I have to.
Somehow I missed updates on this thread.
Phoenix--
Your mother was entitled to the December check (and Medicare benefits) which arrived in January.
If a check comes in February (for January), send it back.
I just went through this for a member of Mr. Noddy's family. The instructions are written to confound an honest woman.

So why isn't there some sort of easily accessible information out there?
