My friend is gone..

What can I say....

Mom did her best but lost.

She was firstly a bit sick, then lots of pain and then all turned out okay.

I took her and my brother to my house in the south-west of Holland.
During the (3 hour) trip she got sick again, on arrival she was really sick. Within 24 hours she was in Hospital.

I saw her change from a bit sick lady to ….

I am trying to find words, but in fain.

She died, my best friend is gone.

I kissed her for the last time, her body was still warm but there was no reaction, no tender smile anymore. I promised her to find her when it was my time, my voice was broken my vision was blurry, my head was screaming.
No more plans, no more advices form her wise mouth.

Its so strange to see that the world goes on as usual: the sun still rises. How come?!

I hope you don't feel that I am intruding in your grief but I felt moved to write. I am really sorry for your loss. Your mother must have been a wonderful woman for you to love her so much. It seems wrong that the world goes on but it does and so must you. Your mother put a lot of her life into you and now you have to carry that on for her. My thoughts are with you.
