One Year On

[badly_knitted]

It's been a year since mum passed away, a year of sadness, stress, worry and health problems, but also a year of great friendships, new challenges, and an awful lot of writing. Last year alone I wrote 303,140 words

I am so glad you are doing so well. I too am living alone now since my Dad passed last November, and hope I do as well as you after a year. *hugs*

I'm so sorry for your loss, I know how it feels.

Being alone is tough, but you will get through it. I'm not sure it really gets easier, you just get used to it until it feels normal. I'm always here if you need someone to talk to, about anything. Just try to remember the good times. I still talk to mum all the time because it still feels like she's here. *hugs*

*hugs* I still think of and talk to my mother and she's been gone for a long time. I'm glad you doing okay and taking care of yourself.

Thank you. Yes, I'm doing okay. Mum will always be with me in spirit, I think that must be true of all mums *hugs*

Yes, and I take comfort from that. I carry mum that way wherever I go.

Thank you!

BIG HUGS

I live with my mother who is 90 years old.
In the house that my father chose and built there a little over thirty years. He died shortly after.

I try not to think too much but I know that someday, so far away, she will leave ...
I'm lucky to have my brothers and sisters all around, but I'm afraid of my reaction and life after.

Anyway, I am convinced that my father is never far away, so hopefully think the same!

Thank you *hugs back* Losing parents is so hard, but they are always with us inn our hearts. I hope your mother will be with you for a long time. 90 is a very good age.

It gets easier, I think, over time. Or I hope it will.
