I've been working really hard the last several days to keep myself together. I knew today was coming and I wasn't quite sure how I was going to deal with it...with Mom's absence...
A year ago today we were celebrating with her. She and I were counting down the days to our Myrtle Beach vacation. Life was good.
And then it all changed. She got sick.
And she didn't get better.
I've been in a constant state of survival ever since.
To be honest, there are days I'm fine. More than fine even. Happy.
But, there are also days when I'm not so sure I'll make it.
Mom was a courageous woman. Despite it all she had a smile on her face.
She was my best friend and I miss her more than words can say.
