@misterpjm: It feels like I’m 7 again and I just want my mom. I never used to feel this same need for her before she was dead. But after my mom died, I was immediately transported to being that little kid who just wants his mom. All the time. Every day. No matter the relationships we had with our parents, after they die, so many of us just want them in those ways that little kids crave their parents. My mom drank alcohol like it was her job, so much of growing up *sucked* and I still crave the few good moments or pictures that I remember. You’re not alone out there in the complicated and confusing feelings of grief. There are so many more of us. Grieving our people. Together. In our own ways. Not alone. I love you. You’re doing great. Or maybe you’re not, and that’s okay too. • • • • • #griefandloss #parentloss #momloss #lifeafterloss #grieftok
