By now you all know that I lost my mom to cancer. It was a hard time.
We took her to the Dr the end of January and she was gone on March 2.
It was very hard on me cause I was never really close to my mom but I took off work to be with her and to help with my dad. I was with her when she died.
It was so hard but I had to be strong for my dad. He didn't handle it well at all.
My oldest brother passed away in October of 04. He was 45 the age I am now.
He had always lived with my parents because he was diabetic. Their world was all about him. When he died I think my mom just gave up.
I just started writing a couple of weeks ago instead of a journal I write letters to my mom telling her what the kids are doing and so on. It seems to help.
