Today I think about those of us whose moms are not with us. Today can be especially difficult. Do you think our moms have met? I wonder if Peanut's mom could give my mom a hug today? :-)

I also think about the moms whose children have gone before them. Today I pray for a woman I know whose son died recently. She clings tightly to her remaining children. And I pray for Caleb's mom too.

For all of us for whom this is not such a happy a day, I want to reach out and hold each of you, and let you know you are not alone. We are together this day remembering each other.

My mother's not here today either. She's alive, but the stress of the surgeries tore our family apart.

I still have not properly mourned my mother's death two years ago. There is still a "battle" over taking care of her remains, and in the meantime I am still in "custody" of them, and unwilling and unable to deal with my father.

Someone else may be willing to take care of the whole thing for me, working on some potential plans now.

dexter,
I would really like to talk with you about hoarding. My X boyfriend has that problem as bad as your dad. I really would like you to contact me please.
Thanks

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
