You’d think that after six years this wouldn’t still affect me this way. You’d think that I wouldn’t continue to cry at unexpected times and in strange places.

You’d think that.

But you’d be wrong.

Losing my Mom is the worst thing that has ever happened to me. I’ve had some pretty rotten blows dealt to me, losing her has been the absolute worst. I knew it would happen one day. Everyone loses their parents if the natural order is followed. I knew she wasn’t healthy and that she didn’t take care of herself. Those are rational, logical thoughts. However, those thoughts are nowhere to be found when you lose someone you love.

My Mom continues to help me and she continues to give me perspective. She has shown me that I made it through the lowest point in my life and somehow I’m still here. She taught me that I can make it through anything.

She never had any doubt.
