I lost my mom 5 weeks ago - I cannot express how hard it is - I love her so much and miss her more than words can describe - she was my biggest cheer leader, my best friend - she was smart, she was beautiful. I simply loved her. I had a very good relationship with her based on love. I am eternally grateful for that - I am in my 50's - but even as old as I am - there is nothing that can replace the love from my mom. thank you for letting me write these words - I am happy to know that my mom knew how much I loved her. I will move one - and be okay - but right now it is just tough - and I am so sad - and look forward to the day when I can think of her and smile without so many tears. one day at a time..
Oh yes, I well understand what you're going through. I lost my mother July 19, 2011. I also am in my 50's. Just today I was thinking how much I miss her and being able to pick up the phone and call her to chat. There is nothing like a Mother's love. You were very fortunate to have a loving relationship with your mom. Sometimes I think that can be a great comfort and sometimes I think it makes the loss that much harder. Honor wherever it is you are on this journey and know that others are walking it also.
