Lost my mom over a year ago. When something good or bad happens, i still reach for my phone to call her. I don't know when that ends. I kinda hope never.

"I don't know when that ends". I remember this feeling when I lost my own mother 15 years ago. A friend told me "It's not really about getting over it, but getting through it." It stuck with me - I hope it may help to hear.

Thank you. Yeah, there's no over it - you know- it's still on your mind every day. I'm spending this summer cleaning out her house - clean a little, find something funny, cry a little, take a nap, repeat.
