Re: 1o Years ago I lost my Mom

To saying losing a parent is hard is an under-statment, but losing a Mom is especially difficult. My Mother passed away several years ago.  I never go a day that I don't think about her and that I don't miss her.  Some days I am filled with such a grief that I just break down and sob.  Some days I think of funny little things she did and said and I just smile and laugh to myself and I am so proud and feel so blessed that I had such a unique, kind and lovely woman for my Mother!  At other times I remember with gut-wrenching sadness her struggles in life and her illnesses at the end of her life.  Yes, it does get somewhat easier to carry on, but the loss never goes away.  You carry her in your heart - she is always with you and you are part of her and so it goes.... no possibility that you can ever forget....
