One Year Ago

One year ago today you left me. You left quite suddenly and without warning. How I wish I could rewind the last few days of your life again. But would it really have made any difference? I wonder. Still I am tormented by what ifs. But you are gone and there is no going back. I think about you every day. Not a day goes by that I don’t think of something to ask you about or tell you about something that happened in my day. But you aren’t there.

We didn’t get to say good-bye and that really hurts. At least I have the last words you spoke to me on the phone—love you! I love you too. I miss you so much.

I think your last words to your Mom were the best ones that could have been said rather than goodbye. *Hug*

Thank you all for remembering last year along with me.
Thank you.

Sending you love, much love.

What is remembered, lives. Thank you for remembering.

(The word I have to type to get the comment posted is “remember.” Really, you can’t make that sort of thing up!)
