She was 85 years old, and I loved her more than life itself. She was an amazing woman.
It is going to take a while to get past this....

Only by renouncing love can we avoid broken hearts - and that is a bad bargain.
Peace to you and your family.

(28,072 posts)As my mom told me when her mom died "It doesn't matter how old you are or she was, you're never ready to lose your mother."
I found out that was true when she died just over a year ago.
It does take a while - give yourself all the time you need.
