hi, i just want you to know that i am praying for you!
and yes it is so true that its hard to be comforted by someone that has not been in your shoes, feeling what youve felt during your mom's sickness and passing. my mom passed away may of 2005, i cant believe its been so long, it still is like it all happened yesterday...i can see it that clearly at least.
but i promise you, this first yr is the hardest...the emotions you feel whenever and wherever will be there the second yr but they wont sting as bad, and i am just beginning the third yr and im goin to have faith it will only get better. i still miss her just as much as the day she passed...but i dont hurt as bad and im not bitter or angry anymore
ive become so much understanding and some how much ive grown up, matured, and appreciate life so much more than i ever have...God is amazing, and you and i and everyone else on this website that has lost someone....has truly been blessed! God has given us love, strength, and determination that so many others havent gone through yet....
we are so lucky for having our moms! and cancer cannot take that away from us!
Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him. –– James 1:1-12 (NIV)
