Dear Betsy,
I am so very sorry to rear about your loss. I understand the sense of
loss that you feel at this time as I too miss my parents even today. All
that I can offer is the knoweldge that it does get easier. One thing
that helped me was knowing and believing that they are with me always and
we will be together when it comes time for me to pass on. I know that
your mom's spirit will continue to live on within you...her principles,
her judgement, her wisdom, her caring and her spirituality were all
passed on to you and continue to live in you. There will be times that
you will feel her presence in the room behind or along side of
you...don't be sad just be still and listen with your heart and enjoy her
company. You will come to know that she will always be there for you.
God bless you and I will pray for the both of you. Stay with us here for
you have a home and safe place to come and be with people who understand
both the journey you have been on and how you feel. Maybe we can help.
John
