My mother , my best friend died last night. Right now l am devastated and drawing on all my strength to handle this. She was a beautiful person inside and out, and to me she was the best mom in the world.. Always there for me through thick and thin. She will be missed without end.. Pixabay image.

My prayers are with you. Those mom-shaped holes are the biggest ones.

I am sorry r the loss of your mother. I lost my own mother in June of 2021 physically, but she had dementia, and I actually lost 'her' about a dozen years before her actual passing. Dementia is a cruel illness that takes a person's mind and then their body later.

From what l heard it is a cruel illness that must have been very hard on your mother, yourself and other family members. I saw in the news recently that Bruce Willis has that ailment. Thank you for the condolences.

I am so sorry, Kandase. I know it is so terribly hard to lose someone we love. To be considered the best mom in the world by a daughter is a huge compliment, and speaks a lot for the love you shared.

@Kandae11 It changes our lives, and changes the way we think, when we lose someone so close to us. It's a part of life that none of us are really ever ready for, and it hurts for a very long time. I hope you have a lot of really special memories of her.
