Wonder if you noticed I haven't been trolling the board as of late....my motherboard crashed...then my daughter was married. What a lovely wedding, so genuine. 2 intelligent lovers full of fun and life...
A week after the wedding , my mom unexpectedly died. It was such a shock. Here I was always wondering how would I make her last remaining years comfortable ... and it wasn't to be. Take a moment to say hi to your mom or grandmother. No one really knows when their time on this Earth is up.
Just purchased a new computer, so just reporting . My mom was so wise and wonderful. I'm going to miss her. :(
Don't want to make anyone sad, just more aware of the precious and fragile life we lead.
peace

Hello Zimmy and greatest condolences from me..


only 'parental' figure remaining, is my wifes mother.. you know what they say about mother in laws... (it's not all true) .. she's 80+ and not your typical Siciliana

happy to hear your daughter's wed.. hope we'll be hearing the patter of tiny feet ... ... soon

blessing to you

THanks everyone for your kind words.

I asked them to wait a couple years for pitterpatter...I need a lil downtime, for certain.

Sorrow.

This is harder than i thought it would be. Sometimes it just hangs in the air, then it comes over and socks me in the gut. It will make it easier to be compassionate towards others in this situation of life. Hold on.

Death of a parent is tough for anyone... expect at least a year's worth of reflection... not all will be sad... each new holiday will hurt a little... and really, do we ever "get over" the death of someone we love? We learn to go on. You will feel better. It will take time.

My dad died in 1984, mom in 1989, and there are still days I wish I could talk to them.

You have my deepest sympathy. I will keep you in my heart...
