My mom died.
What else do I say about this week? It feels like it's been years since Tuesday night. It hurts.
I keep thinking - "I should call my mom." The first time I thought it, I sat down and cried for a while. I still keep thinking it. I feel like she'd have some good advice. At least, she'd listen.
Many of her friends have reached out to me and said how special she was. I appreciate that. She was pretty special. She touched a lot of people. She lived life and loved life. Yeah, she was special.
I love my mom. No past tense there. I love my mom. She'll always be a big part of my life. I may not be able to call her anymore, to see her anymore, but I know she will always be with me.
Onward
There's a Jewish saying: may her memory be a blessing. It sounds like it will be, though the pain of your loss will linger.
