Debbie,
So many good words said here today, but the best by far, (and brought tears of happiness) were these:
"And I have to agree with Michelle -- be alert for signs that your Mom is there with you. There are times when I know my Dad is with me. I can feel it, out of the blue. It's not imagination, because if it was imagination I would imagine it all the time! Be alert for a dream, for a sense, for a laugh, for a penny in the driveway. Be aware for a nudge that she's there, checking on you, being with you. It may feel like just a whisper. That's all. But you'll know it."
I lost my only daughter 2 years ago this coming August. I also was by her side. You were very lucky to be there for your Mom.
Take it one day at a time...sometimes in your grief you may find a strength you never knew you had. Life changes, and yes it
does suck at times, but you will be a stronger person in the end.
