Today I was informed that my mother died yesterday. Her passing was peaceful and my siblings were at her side. There is no funeral, and her body was cremated.
Although we have been estranged for years, and there is no shock at this news, I find I am experiencing grief and loss. I am actually very emotional and shaky. I will have to go very carefully for a while.
I guess it is a good thing that I am in treatment, as I can get the attention I will need, am needing now. I'm grateful for this thread where I can share my grief.
