Mom Has Been Gone Five Years, But the Power of Her Love Remains
Five years ago, we were trying to keep my mom comfortable as she peacefully passed away. We tried to make every day, leading up to her last breath, an incredible day filled with loving and sweet moments.
As I look back on that time of the worst sadness I have ever known and the difficult task of actually letting her go, I'm filled with a sense of deep gratitude and peace. Many things have changed since she left us, but that doesn't mean the changes have all been bad, some have been amazing and lead each of us to a better sense of who we are and our place in this world.
