Mines is not. She died when I was 7 years old. I am now 29 years old. I will be celebrating my 30th birthday on August the 9th... I miss her so much... She has 4 beautiful grand children...

Obviously it is a great miss. But fortunately my mother is still with us. At the day's end returning back to home I like so much to see her sitting in the bed. We talk a lot about different events and happening. It is a great pleasure for me doing so.

Yes, my mother is still alive. She will be 59 this coming Halloween. I am sorry to hear that she had to leave you at such a young age and that she did not get to meet her grandchildren.

I am very sorry too.. My kids has another grandmother, which is my mother-in-law. This woman has taken me for granted... She just don't know how lucky she is to have 3 grandkids that she can still see.. My mom does not have this chance.. My mil is very grateful..

I'm so sorry you missed all those years with your mother! My mother is 83 now and she's slowing down and getting frail. It's so strange to see her that way and I can't imagine life without her. She stays with me a few months every year to escape hurricane season and it's a joy to have her.

Sorry to hear that you lost your mother when you were still a child when the need for a mother is more. Mother has no parallel in this world. I lost my affectionate mother about two years ago. For me not a day passes without remembering her. Fortunately she saw all her grandchildren.

Yes, this is when I needed her the most, when I was a child.. Well it is good to know that you had time spent with her and she got the opportunity to see her grandchildren... I am very sure she loved you all!

My mom is still alive. She just turned 51 last May 21 and we made a big celebration for that. Well we always celebrate her birthdays although this recent one is such a big celebration and it's like a family reunion of her. My mom has only 2 grandchild. I wish we can spend a lot of times with her and we're praying her good health.

Mines not either, she passed away the week before mothers day of this year. I miss her and I am sure that I always will, but her teachings will always be with me no matter what and I do have some really fond memories of her.

I am so sorry to hear that... I know when Mother's Day comes for me, there is an empty sadness that covers my heart. I cannot spend this day with my mom... I love her and I miss her!

In a way, though it may sound odd, I feel somewhat closer to her than before. I guess its because now I feel as though she is with me where ever I am.

My mother is still alive although we almost lost her to a stroke ten years ago. She never quite fully recovered but is losing functionality again now, which is very sad especially since I can't be there for her because I live so far away. I talk with her on the phone almost weekly but haven't seen her in four years. Just can't afford the airfare. She has five grandchildren (three of which are from me and she hasn't seen my last one yet) and may even see a great-grandchild as my oldest nephew will be 27 this year and is in a serious relationship.
