A Mother's Day Wish

Remembering Mom.

Hi Lori,
That was sweet and sad. It made me cry twice. You write so well; I felt for a moment I was in your shoes, aching for my mother. I guess that it is part of the universal human condition.
If you're interested one day I want to show you a dvd my mother sent me. It is of a talk given by a woman who died and then came back to tell in great detail the experience. Since then I look at death quite differently.
Talk to you later, Rachael

your article is beautiful. i to miss my mom and see other mothers and daughters and thank about her every day. My mother died on Mother's day which makes it more traumatic. Instead of giving her a mother's day gift her five daughters were in her hospital room saying good-by. i intend to share your article with them.

Lori,
Thanks for a wonderful essay. My mother died when my daughter was 6 months old, almost 3 years ago. There are still days when the loss feels gaping. I, too, try to include her in Charlotte's childhood through story and tradition, but the hole is still there.
