I want to reach out to you as someone who does understand. I lost my mother to cancer. Though I was not as young as you are, the void that was left in my life could not be filled by any one else. I was 36 years old and the mother of 2 children when I lost my mother. My heart ached at the thought that she would never see her grandchildren grow up, attend their graduations, weddings...all the events my grandparents where there for.in my life I still miss her today...17 years later.
I understand your pain as someone who has been diagnosed with cancer and almost died, I was dying and only because of the intervention of surgeons who were willing to take a great risk and perform surgery , did I live. My three children were deeply affected by the prospect that I almost died. Much like you, my two oldest children were in college and we had to be apart during most of my treatments. At the time, my youngest was only 12 years old. Each of them suffered from depression and the prospect of life without their mother.
In my heart, as a mother and daughter, I believe your mother is still with you...in your heart, in your memories and in your spirit. Keep up with your studies, make her proud and I know you are. Though you had a short time with her compared to your sisters, hold onto to those days as special priceless treasures.
