March 28, 2015 at 3:54 amI Miss you so much Mom, I know it has been 3 years, but it seems like it was yesterday. I wish you were still here with me, cause I do have an empty spot that will not heal. I know that I wasn’t the best daughter to raise, but later in life we became close again, there are times that I still cry for the lost of you in my life. Mom you were taken away from us way to early and I wish that I would have been closer to make you understand that life wasn’t that bad and we can get thought that bad time in your life and have a great fulfilling life for a long time. Mom I know you were trying to tell my that your weren’t ready to leave us, the day I was at hospice with you all alone and you have finally realized I was there but you gave up on life and I can understand why. It hurt me, cause there was nothing I could do for you, you had made up your mind and it hurt me so bad, that all I could do it cry with you, and let you know that it was all right, and you had done the best you could do as a single Mom raising 3 kids. You did an amazing job Mom, and I love you and will miss you forever. As I sit here trying this message I am wiping the tears away. I LOVE YOU SO VERY MUCH MOM AND I WILL FOREVER MISS YOU UNTIL I SEE YOU AGAI. 🙁 🙁 🙁 XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOX I hope you get this message and make a visit to let me know that you are ok.
