Herson, I am so sorry you lost your mother. I know your love and concern for her through her fight must have meant so much to her. I'm glad you got to spend a lot of time with her and have such good memories. I hope you have people around you who will supprt you in your grief.

Life is never the same after you lose a parent. I lost my father four months ago and my life is not the same without him in the world. But I also feel he is still with me in my heart and in the way I see and react to things. Our parents never really leave us I believe.

My thoughts are with you.

Nelie
