My sisters and I have a memorial weekend coming up, we meet in Moms birthplace and remember what we learned from her and try to learn from her mistakes...Like not getting a pap smear redone after an abnormal one.

Grieving is a necessary process, especially if Mom was a golden thread in your tapestry.

Yes you want to do it and this will be the easiest way forward. you will write it with tears no doubt, but they are there to ease the pain.

That particular pain will probably never go away. I think we all carry it. But writing 'your story' may help! Good luck . . .

Go with it. Thinking about her - imagining what she was thinking under
different circumstances - and writing about events from her point of view can be like spending time with her. Sometimes when I was writing the novel about mom and my dad talking it over in the afterlife it felt like she was right there, guiding the dialog.
