Thanks so much. It’s only bee a couple months and I find myself laughing and then crying within minutes of thinking of a memory. I’m sure it will get easier with time. Thank you for your kind words.

I just found your blog while searching for map drawers…haven’t explored much yet but came across this one about your Mom. My heart goes out to you and your family…my Dad died after a fall and spent a horrendous 10 days in the hospital not really knowing who we were. He and my mother were also married 60 years in the August before he passed. He was lucky to see 2 great grandchildren but missed the next two. He missed COVID! There isn’t a day that my mother and I don’t miss him but it does get easier to live with the gap,loss, hole that they leave behind. We now laugh at the funny memories and still talk to him daily. God bless.

What a gift, albeit in tragic circumstances, those last weeks sound like. I hope the time comes soon when you can smile instead of cry when you think of your mom. My thoughts and prayers continue for you, your dad, and while family.

It was three years of hell — I almost passed in 2007, my mom in 2008 and my dad in 2009. I am so glad that I was able to drop everything and care for my dad after his diagnosis. It was the hardest thing I have EVER done, but also, the most REWARDING!!

{{{{{hugs}}}}} My sincerest condolences to you and your family.
