I sit here and think, what is it going to be like from now on? No longer will I get calls from Mom asking how I'm doing , or how the grandkids are. I'll miss spending time with her, even as she went overboard and tried entertaining me when I visit. No longer will I get that motherly advice that as any Son does, listening but not really going to use, even when you know that it's probably is the best you'll get. You see, Mom left us on Friday, October 31, 2008. As she was suffering from breast cancer, it was a blessing that she left peacefully in her sleep. Of course, as children, we regret that she was alone, at home and that we were not there for her. Logically we know that if we were there that we would have call the paramedics and they would have brought her back, and then put her in the hospital where she would have probably never left, and been in pain the whole time.
Mom
1933-2008
Like all people who must deal with the grief and depression of losing a loved one, I started a blog page that I hope my sister and brother will help on and will celebrate her life with memories we have of her. It called "Memories of Mom" and can be found in my friends column to the left. As I stated in Mom's blog, as long as I keep her in my memories Mom will always be with me.
