My mom died on New Year's Eve.
I miss her at the strangest times, for the smallest of things. Sometimes it seems she's not gone because she lived far away...I can almost pretend that we just haven't been in contact lately.
But she's dead, and the horror of the disease that took her haunts me. It was CJD - Creutzfeld Jakob Disease. It's a diagnosis that is always fatal. Always. The variance is how long you will live. My mom lived for 8 months, which was remarkable but hard. She and dad moved in with my family while we waited for her to die. There's something horrible about waiting for someone to die, when you know it's a certainty.
I've lost my mother, my faith, and sometimes I think my sanity.
It's just so hard.

I am sorry for the loss of your mom

I'm sorry you lost your mom. I lost my mom 4 years ago and I still miss her. Sometimes I see something I think she would like and think to myself I must tell her about it. I watched her die of COPD another bad disease to watch a loved one die from. My heart goes out to you. You might consider couseling to help you through the grief process. Best wishes.
