Mum has been gone for 2 weeks. I want very much to write about it but whenever I really think about it I realize that I still haven't wrapped my head around it and figured out to process it. Intellectually I accept it, emotionally I've packed it up in a box bearing a tag "open later". A healthy way to deal with something? I'm guessing probably not but it's working for me at the moment so there.
I have a lot of shit to figure out. I'll get back to you...
I read about your mother. That was a very moving post you wrote when you said she was dying (spelling?). I'm so sorry. My mother is older (82) and having issues so I think about this type of thing from time to time.
FYI I just opened a twitter account 10 minutes ago. This is my first post of any kind. I have no idea if only you see my post or if the whole world does. If you respond I'm not sure I will even see it...just figuring out how all of this works.
