One Year Later

Today marks the completion of 52 weeks since my beautiful mother passed away.

52 weeks ago today, she lived until a massive, unanticipated ventricular heart attack took her away from me at 6:51am. She was in the hospital for what we were thinking was a minor adjustment of her medications.

I had gone home the night before (around 9pm) thinking things were fine. Unfortunately, I never saw her alive again. I was awoken from a deep sleep at roughly 7am to come to the hospital immediately.

I so miss her beautiful smile and her gentle eyes. I so miss hearing her talk with me. I so miss our ritual of eating out together on Thursdays. I simply, unbearably, and sadly, just MISS HER.

I appreciate all forms of comments on my writings. I find that I miss the sponteneity of coming to read them here when they were unmoderated. I believe I wrote less due to the moderation. I have decided to adopt limited moderation. Hopefully the prior problems with unfettered comments will not arise again. Please feel free to comment as you wish about the essays I write. I will maintain those comments that offer kind-hearted and gentle opinion... be it positive or negative. The opinions of your comments will, of course, need to have relevance to the post as well.
