Some Days...

Some days, I miss my mum more than others.

Today was one of those days.

It was warm, sunny and beautiful outside.

I got a lot done at work.

Nooze has almost 'topped out' of reading levels at school.

While those were parts of a great day, they are not ultimately what made me miss my mum so much.

I received the results of my mammogram today.

My letter contained the phrase "No trace of cancer".

Now THAT is something worth celebrating.

I wish that my mum could have been here to celebrate with me.

I still miss my mother and think about her a lot. Its been 5 years now that she has been gone. Sometimes I think about dialing her old phone number, but I don't think I could bear it if somebody else answered!

Bless you heart. I know how you feel. My mother has not been gone a year yet and I miss her every day. I also received my "no cancer" mammogram report last week and the first thing I thought of was, "I'll call Mom and tell her."

I'm glad you got a clean bill of health.
I know you miss your mother and I'm sorry for your loss. I can't imagine how lonely I'll be when my Nana passes away..

I will always remember what you wrote about your mother here. It's one of the first things I read of yours and I have saved pieces of it to remember so I can try to be that kind of mom.

Congratulations on your results! And I believe that even though your mom isn't *here* she knows.

Much love to you.

Renn,

As my people say, Mazel Tov (a star is shining on you - or something like that). I'm thrilled to hear it and will think carry some of your mom's memory with me on the ride this summer.

Sorry to be so late commenting on this post - teh krazy has hit me (at work, not 'real life')and I've forgotten where I've been on the net. that is no way to treat a friend.

I agree with Sarah and Juliness. Your mom is celebrating with you! You just can't hear her or see her happy dance.

Big hugs to you, Girl!
