My Mother passed away 13 days ago. I have been living with her for the past 10 months. She sat in her chair directly to my right. It's empty now. I went back to Tennessee for a month in October to see my family, and she called me and said she missed seeing me sit at my computer every night. In fact, she said she kept imagining that I was still there and spoke about how she missed me. Now, I imagine her still sitting there in her chair, and I miss her.
I have been very lost since she passed. She was a beautiful woman,...I didn't appreciate her enough when she was right here in the room with me. I didn't thank her enough for all that she did for me. I didn't love her enough for being such a wonderful Mother. I took her for granted. I'm so sad about that now. I wish she was here so I could tell her how much I loved her, how much she helped me, how much I appreciated all of her love and encouragement. But her chair is empty. And she's gone.
Regret is horrible.
