Losing a piece of my heart

Losing a piece of my heart

This week will be short. At the time of writing this, my mom is in the final days of her life.  I was incredibly fortunate and blessed to have moved back here at the beginning of June so I was able to spend a few more precious weeks with her, that I otherwise would not have had.  For most of my adult life she's been my best friend, and it's hard to imagine a day without her in it.  She was always there for me, to help me even when it meant putting herself second.  I appreciate the chance I have to tell her how much I love her and to say good bye, because so many don't have that opportunity.  She was loved by so many people and she will be greatly missed by everyone that knew her.  I know I will certainly have a hole in my heart when she's gone. 

Love you Mom.
