Thank you for sharing, Sarah. Something I think about when I think of my grief for my own dead parents is a song lyric by Jens Lekman, “You don’t get over a broken heart, you just learn to carry it gracefully.”

Wishing you a peaceful weekend and some time to feel connected to your mom and her life, if that feels right right now.
