Thank you @mantaraye for your thoughtful post. My mom passed in January after a LONG decline physically and mentally.

@Cakers3 just wanted to say hi. I am not in the "neighborhood" too often and missed seeing your posts. I hope you are well. Missed you this past weekend posting on the baseball thread when our beloved teams played one another. You may no longer live in New England, but you are a Soxette!

My son graduated May of 2016, and I miss going to Boston several times a year.
@dmod nj Oh Donna it's so good to see you too. Congrats to your son!!!!
For shame-I haven't kept up with my Red Sox but I do wear several of my T's to the gym. Very brave in Ranger land. LOL

Hope things are ok for you, too.
@Cakers3 All is well in Jersey, thanks. Your Sox are in 1st place!! Hoping my Yankees change that, soon. LOL Yes, you are brave wearing another team t-shirt to the gym. Good for you going to the gym!!!
@dmod nj I'm sorry about your mom, too. I know you were posting briefly on Sunny's thread but I had not kept up on that thread in a while.

Thanks @Cakers3. I do try to post on Sunny's thread every Friday. Some weekends, I get there by Sunday. LOL It's a peaceful way to end the week and start the weekend.

You can take the girl out of Jersey, but you can't take Jersey out of the girl. Jersey Girl living in CNY.

It does make it somewhat easier when you have someone to talk to. I hate that so many of us have gone through this, but it helps to have someone that understands. Even if they have never been in the exact situation.

And, then add in difficulty with your family. If you don't agree on how things should be handled or if one making the situation harder because of money or whatever reason they have going on.

@mantaraye thanks so much for your condolences. I recently posted as well about losing my mom. It is so difficult and I'm have a very hard time so your post means a lot to me.

Sometimes the strength within you is not a big fiery flame for all to see. It is just a tiny spark that whispers ever so softly "You Got This - Keep Going"

I too, am one of those who lost someone recently and thank you for the kind post. My dad passed on the 4th of July. I'm not sure the word I am looking for, but I found it kind of comforting that he passed on Independence Day. The day that he and so many others have fought and are fighting for to give us all our freedom in America.
