It's been 2 1/2 years since I last saw her, and I'm so afraid that I'm never going to be able to see her again. My father is gone, passed on a little over that time frame. It's hard not being able to be with your loved ones, especially your parents and children. I pray that God will keep her in good health. Thank you for writing about your mother and the sorrow you went through.Skirt in the Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16271029288093983262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1991265338210422893.post-48312694870383788962015-08-10T06:11:29.033-05:002015-08-10T06:11:29.033-05:00The loss of a parent is so significant.

I don't know what to say, except that I know that I've found comfort in writing my grief down and applying some structure to it through syntax. I hope that writing this beautiful and powerful poat, as others said, gave you some relief. Lots and lots of love to you. P.S. so interesting that I had a dream about you this week. .
