Re: mom's gone
The passing of your Mother is one of life's most devastating losses. The hole in your heart is immense. Find strength in the comfort that she is now in the loving care of God and she feels pain no more.

Sorry for your loss. Loosing a parent is very difficult but I found remembering all the goods times you had with them is a big help.

Sorry for your loss. Our thoughts are with you.

Why is it that the trucks are always the best running vehicles in the family?

Bad news to hear. Best wishes to you and your family.

Re: mom's gone
My condolences for your loss. My best friend, (God bless his soul) had diabetes and my Step-Father has it still. Maybe someday they can find a cure for it.

Re: mom's gone
My sincere condolences on your loss. I also lost my mother to diabetes (and its' side effects) this past February, after several years of fighting it. I can really relate to your feelings, as your loss brings back all those same feelings to me. On the bright side, my mom was surrounded by her loving family, and she embraced what was happening, due to her strong faith.
Keep and cherish all the good memories of your mother. I know that is what she would want you to do.
My prayers are with you and your family.

Re: mom's gone
I lost my mom at the end of June and it does get easier however there are still days when I wish I could go visit or just pick up the phone to talk. Sorry for your loss.
