Fay Posted May 15, 2004 Share Posted May 15, 2004 Well, a year has come and gone. I still find it hard to believe. I miss my Mom so much, but life has to go on. It is in the quiet moments that I feel the most grief (and Mothers day). My Dad had a real hard time of it today. This morning we went to the cemetary to bring flowers. This happens to be my husband's birthday as well, so I only allowed myself the morning to be sad, had to "Cheer up " for the rest of the day. It was only fair to him, last year his birthday was non-existant. I have finally added (With Rick's help!) a post to the wall of memory. I'd love for you all to visit it. Thanks for being there, faylene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KatieB Posted May 15, 2004 Share Posted May 15, 2004 Faylene, I remember when you posted that your mom passed. And I remember how you were there for me 4 months later when my dad did. God love you for still being here to offer support. Your mom was proud of you during her battle and I know she is proud of you now. So glad to "know" you, and big hugs on this sad anniversary.

stand4hope Posted May 15, 2004 Share Posted May 15, 2004 Hi Faylene, Mother's Day is the hard for me, too. My mom's been gone 5+ years, but Mother's Day always brings some tears. I, too, snap out of it pretty quickly for the rest of the family and just won't let myself become overwhelmed with sadness. I'm glad you were able to cheer up for your husband. I'm also glad to see you still stay in touch with all of us after losing your mom. I've noticed your posts many times encouraging others. God bless you, Peggy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fay Posted May 17, 2004 Author Share Posted May 17, 2004 Thanks to all of you for being there. For those of you following behind me on this journey, it does get easier. Four days before my Mom's anniversary, it was the 25th anniversary of my brother's death. I remember the extreme grief I felt back then, but can honestly say, most times now I remember the good times, I'm sure it will be the same someday for us remembering our newly lost loved ones. Keep the faith and keep journeying. Love, Faylene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Cheryl- Posted May 18, 2004 Share Posted May 18, 2004 Fay, It is so hard to lose our loved ones. You will see your beloved Mom one day again in Heaven. It is hard to believe that it does get easier with each passing year. What a beautiful tribute to your Mom. God Bless you. Much Love, Cheryl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KC Posted June 7, 2004 Share Posted June 7, 2004 Fay, I am so sorry for your loss and your grief. I just want to tell you that every time I see that picture of your Mom on your postings, she looks just like an Angel to me (and I'm sure she is). It actually looks like she has wings in the photo. I just wanted to share with you what I see every time I see your beloved Mother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fay A. Posted June 7, 2004 Share Posted June 7, 2004 Faylene, I apologise for not responding to you when you wrote this. I don't know I missed it, but I did. You're one of the kindest people I've met on this journey. And you have encouraged me so many times I've lost count. Thank you. I hope that in the weeks since you wrote this things become easier still. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
