YES! For the first few months it was as though mom was "on vacation" and she would be back soon.

Sometimes I get a guilt feeling when I do something fun or something she would have enjoyed. I don't know if you get that way or not?

For me, the only thing that really helped get through everything was going to work, believe it or not.....it kept my mind occupied.

I know it's tough, but I am glad you are talking about it.
