Thanks Nick. Days and numbers are my thing, especially when it comes to how long my mom has been gone. I hope you find peace soon. Take care.

Hi Catharina:

I translated this as:

if your parents die
dies a piece of your past
if your partner dies
dies a piece of your present
if your child dies
dies a large part of your future

This is so true. Thank you for stopping by and sharing. Take care.

als je ouders sterven
sterft een stukje van je verleden
als je partner sterft
sterft een stukje van je heden
als je kindje sterft
sterft een groot deel van je toekomst

The numbers Game… I’ve not thought about it like that Kathy,but I see what you mean, and subconsciously I’ve beendoing the same thing.
i think we are both at the same stage of our grief, or close to it, and your last paragraph sums up my state of mind pretty accurately.
I’m glad you are finding some peace now Kathy, It’s a long hard road, but you ( and I) will get there eventually… hopefully.
Take care,
love n hugs

Me too! I think Mother’s Day is never the same after you lose your mom. Thank God for my kids! Though some of them are far away and could only send cards and make phone calls. Two of my kids are local and I was able to spend time with each. Still, I was missing my mom all day….
