Hi Krisles
My parents are in their eighties, so I'm not fooling myself that the current good times will last much longer. It's not the way of the world. I'm trying not to dwell on that eventuality, but I'm certain that when it arrives it will have a profound effect on me, and I will need to go through the kind of emotional gymnastics that you're beginning to experience. I've been through similar things before, having lost an extremely close female friend when she was only 26, and having divorced (which is a kind of death, I feel), but when it comes to your parents, I can only imagine that it's different. In your case, and in mine, they are the two humans who have been the most constant in life, the ones we've known since day one. I can't even say that about my brother and sisters. I guess it doesn't matter how old we are when it happens, we're still going to feel orphaned, I think. But take things one day at a time. Today is the most real of our days. And as Passion hints, I can't believe that such human links as these can be given to us without the promise of continuation... And to echo Passion again, it's good to see you visiting and sharing your feelings with us...

It's very hard. Sometimes I wake up and wonder if my mother is still alive. (She's not).

Hey, well I for one, am glad to see you back on Blogit
Whatever the catalyst...But I am sorry to hear about your mom's health.
You do have all those symptoms of an only child, don't you? I'm like that too, though I had brothers and sisters. I find the need to be alone when I'm trying to process new revelations and such. After you get it all straight in your own head, perhaps you'll feel like writing.
In one of my blogs I've been writing about how no one actually dies. They just pass on to the next plane of existence. The rules are different there but they still spend time with those they loved while living here.

Kris
I remember when that started to happen to my Grandpa, he went from being the biggest man in the world to me to someone who weighed less than I. It's a tough road and I wish I had words of wisdom for you. All I can offer is that I do care and I am sorry this is happening to you.
