I lost my mother a few months ago after she courageously battled a horrible illness and was taken from us way before we were ready to say goodbye. I came across this while feeling a little down today and thought I'd share it. Don't ever take your mother for granted!

I'm so sorry for your loss. My Mom left us a year and a half ago, and still she's with me every day. Lately I've been missing her something awful, and feel her presence frequently.
Thank you for posting this. It is meaningful to those of us who have lost Moms, and poignant to those who are lucky enough to still have theirs.
My motto is: Love 'em while you got 'em.

This really touched me. Thanks so much for posting it. My mom's been gone for five years now, and I have been missing her so much more lately since I had my first child six months ago. Oh how I wish she were here to ask her all those baby questions I've had. I'm going to send this to my sisters- I know they'll appreciate it.
I feel for your loss. I know it's cliche and it doesn't matter to hear this now, but time does heal. Live your life as if your Mom is watching you every minute. It helps so much.

I don't usually go for these kinds of posts, but this one really got me.
Thanks.
