As I watched the video above, I am reminded that there are millions of people who lost their mother long before they should have. It is truly amazing how much my mother missed after she died. Here is a running list of some of the events I wish I could have shared with her:
2008-My first new car and my Masters graduation. I owed her this one since I decided to skip my Bachelor's graduation. It was also the year I went back to a natural hairstyle. The election of Obama!! She was robbed!
2009-Finding Dad near death and his PD diagnosis.
2010-Taking her out for her 60th Birthday, Red Lobster style!
2011-2016-Her support during my PhD program. I most definitely would have been less stressed.
2013-My frozen shoulder diagnosis. I sure could have used my mom during this time.
2014-My cancer scare after my 2nd Mammogram and subsequent biopsy.
2015-Celebrating her 65th Birthday!! She would have a huge party for sure!
2016-My PhD graduation
2017-My GERD diagnosis. She probably would have caught this long before it started.
Most importantly, she missed my transition from young adult years into my middle-aged years. I have so many questions about this time of life, that she certainly would have guided me through. Over the past 10 years, I have thought about that phrase: "It's Never Goodbye". I am believe and I believe this but in the land of the living it truly is. I know longer can hear my mother's voice, smell her scent nor get a huge when life gets hard. But what she did leave me with are beautiful memories and reminders that her strength resides in those left behind.
Now in the next edition I will talk about her her dying wish.
