Uzzi
You promised to care and you more than fulfilled that duty.
It can't have been easy, but yes, she was your mum and so you miss her and what might have been.
Birthdays and anniveraries, especially the 1st after passing, always provoke lots of thoughts.

Be kind to yourself and remember the good times.

((hug))

Hi Uzzi,

There are many kinds of love, some you can't help showing, others you hide deep inside, some you don't realise you feel and so on. You didn't have the best relationship with your Mother but she knew you cared, she couldn't have thougth otherwise, except she considered it her right to be loved and we should never take love for granted.

You did all you promised and more and you said the words at the end, don't beat yourself up any more and don't get angry at your Mother for taking the chance for things to get better from you. Fate has things all worked out for us, I really believe that, and even if we aren't always happy with the way things go, we can only change them to a small extent. You made the best changes you could and now it's time to tell yourself that you did you best and can now go on with the rest of your life the way you want, no one to answer to except T. and no one to criticise or play on your emotions. Enjoy the freedom!

Love and hugs

Coincidentally it was o.h.'s father's 82nd birthday on Friday too. Fireworks at that end at the mo, his wife isn't talking to him or cooking for him, heaven knows how that's all going to turn out. Thank heavens we have no room for him here!!!!

Oh you definately loved her Uzzi, maybe not as much as you would have liked though.

You did an amazing job Uzzi.

RIP your mum

We knew that you loved her, even though she could be a thorn in your side. You would not have done so much for her if you hadn't loved her. RIP your Mum.

I'm sure you did love your Mother otherwise you wouldn't have done as much for her as you did.
I'm really sorry to hear that your mum has died and am sending you my heartfelt condolences <3

Would have been my mothers birthday her 84th. I did have a lot planned for it but well life goes on.
I stayed away because I needed to be with me and I didn´t want encroach on anybodies weekend.
It´s been a strange 2 months, because that is how long from her death. I still can´t believe it happened. I haven´t sorted out all her things yet, I keep finding reasons not to.

She wasn´t the greatest Mother one could have, but she was mine and I am so glad that I told her I loved her before she died. (Even if I wasn´t sure I meant it)

So RIP mother dearest, I hope you can eventually be yourself.

xx
