Yesterday was my Mom's birthday. She would have been 82.
I lost Mom to bladder cancer that had gone to her lungs in 2017.
I don't start bawling or anything, but I do feel sad. I really miss my Mom.
Mom was born on June 18th, 1944, and while Father's Day, hadn't been officially a holiday then, Mom told me that she was my grandfather's Father's Day present.
Photo was taken on Mom's birthday, 2017. Her hair had really thinned from chemotherapy.
I sure miss you, Mom.

She must have been a wonderful mother. I know it can be very difficult to lose people in our lives that mean so much to us.

She lived a long life, even if it doesn't feel like it to you. It's good that you still remember her.
