blueeye Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 Yesterday was one year since Mom died. It was really, really hard to walk into work yesterday. (I work at the hospital where she died.) I tried to stay busy--after work I went to a friend's house for a day-late Thanksgiving meal. I really enjoy her family and didn't really want to leave. I still can't believe that my parents are gone. I didn't even want to eat any pumpkin pie...that was Mom's dish to make. I'm trying to be happy, I know that they'd want that.

jaminkw Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Leslie, I'm coming in late but with all best wishes that your saddness lifts soon. I know from all the comments on the site that it's tough losing a mom and/or a dad. The holidays, especially the "firsts," make it so much worse. Glad you have good friends willing to be a surrogate family for you. Judy in Key West Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shineladysue Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 (((Leslie))), it's so hard and we do understand. It seems to help to talk about it to people who can relate to what you are feeling. Hugs, Sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick C Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 I know how hard that year mark is... So sorry. I also know how hard it is to have that special dish that just doesn't taste the same as it once did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KatieB Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 ((Leslie))) I'm sorry to be posting this late. I just wanted to send a hug and let you know I "get it", and I am here for you. I'm glad it passed as gently as it could for you and I hope sometime soon that warm memories can comfort you during those difficult times. (((hug))) I hope today is a better day.
