The few regrets that I have are slowly fading. I’m remembering more of the really good times we used to have when she was still well. I also find myself talking to her in my mind. I tell her what the weather is like, notice pretty things and describe them for her…Some would say that it’s foolish. I don’t think so.

So, I continue to be kind to her even though I can no longer visit with her, or call her just to say hello. But since she is no longer just ten minutes away, or just a phone call away, I feel that this goal has been completed. What do you think, Mom?
