The pic of your mom really captures her as I remember her. Cute beyond her years, and just caught making a sharp but hilarious crack, probably at you. Love you! And honored to have shared a few special times with her.

Big hugs to you. I cannot imagine losing my mom. I would feel so lost.

Oh, it’s so true. I find that the longer it is, the better I am day-to-day but those moments can bring you RIGHT BACK.

I love that picture.

You are so smart and strong. One of the things coming out in therapy is that I never let myself FEEL my mother’s death. I sort of observed it in everyone else, but remained detached from the fact that I, too, lost her.

You are going to be alright. I am going to be alright. And we will be better people for having loved and been loved.

I couldn’t have said it better myself. Although I seem to think that losing my mom would be so much more painful than it was when I lost my dad. (((hugs)))

I can’t even imagine the range of emotions that comes with losing a parent, but from your eloquent post, I think you probably described it perfectly. Big hugs.

P.S. You have her smile.

Yes! I can’t mention her name before tears well up in my eyes. My mom died two years ago yesterday. I miss her every day. She was my best friend, the one I called ten times a day. No, the pain is always there and I just hope she is watching over me while I go through this life without her.
I feel your pain. The Alzheimers took her but I always knew she knew me.
