I read Joan Didion's, The Year of Magical Thinking after my mom died. If you can, read it. Hugs to you, marymc.

marymc says,

I read it when it first came out. Sobbed my way through it even though it seem unfathomable to me at the time.

Never heard of that book, but I think I'll go to the library today to check it out. That's a hard thing to see one parent after the other parent is gone. Sending cyber hugs your way...

So much loss for everyone. Sad.

marymc says,

I just made the reservations. Am going out in 2 weeks for her birthday. I am sick to my stomach at the thought.

JAD says,

marymc, here's hoping things turn out just the opposite.

It gets better, love. I promise.
