Is is still as pain when you are dealing with a lost that you saw coming?
I think the pain of losing a loved one still exists deeply. I'm sorry for my dearest babe that lost her mum to her year long battle with cancer. As much as I know it was taking its toll on her mum and her family, i've finally seen her more relaxed.
But as i read her email to us they day before the passing, it made my heart strings pull. As i quote her:" She is trying to say someting but my sis can't figure out what. " she said that her mum was waiting for her to come home from work, but by the time she reached home, her mum was asleep.
Today, its my lovely's birthday and in her email she said:" Last yr during my bdea, my mum was jus able to start her chemo and she is still chubby and mobile, this year during my bdea, she is sick and senile. "
Her mum was always welcoming and friendly, we were just discussing to visit her over the weekend. but we never made it. though the family is coping really well, i'm sure we all have regrets.
janice. we cannot live to remember those who have left, but we live to create memories with those who are still with us. Not to regret when the day they have departed.
