Death Sucks

[Carl East]

I just found out that my Mother died today, but I don't think it's affected me yet, perhaps because we hadn't spoken for over ten years. Even though my Mother and Father were divorced when my Father died, I know he still loved her, and I hope they are together now.

Unlike my Father, whom I loved dearly, I did get the chance to tell my mother many years ago that I loved her, but I wish I'd told her more recently now. Sorry if I'm waffling on a bit, I just wanted to talk about it, to anyone really.

Waffle on sweetness, I understand. Come and wallow in muffinhugs. Death really does suck. I wish your pain would go away.

OMG Carl I am so sorry

But at least you had a chance to tell her. I like to think that it makes a difference.

I'm lucky to still have both my parent's alive but I can sympathize with you having lost my grandparents (and unfortunately did not tell them recently enough that I loved them. With my grandma it was just the folly of youth... with my grandfather he slipped into Alzheimer's much too quickly - I said it but I don't know if he heard it). Death surely does sucketh big time.

I'm heading home soon and I think I will call my parent's and tell them both that I love them. Something I haven't done in a long time. Some things really put that into perspective.

May I be allowed to add my condolences Carl? I know the pain you must be in. My Mom passed in my home from cancer. My late wife was holding her hand when she passed. I was at the pharmacy getting her pain medication. Took me a long time to forgive myself for running out the door that day without telling her that I loved her. Time heals all Carl. That sounds trite, I know, but it's true. Never forget her Carl. Keep her in your mind and in your heart. May God bless you and make your pain easier Carl.

I'm sorry, Carl. Not-so-good things happen to good people. It makes me sad to see you sad. *hugs*

My deepest sympathy goes out to you Carl. It helps to remember the good times you had with her. Time is a magic healer.
