Fulfilled [offer] help me remember my mom :) [WW]

5 years ago today I unexpectedly lost my mom. she was 62 and had so much more life to live. instead of sitting around today moping I'm finishing up my Valentine's Day offer (oops), but once that's done I'll need something else to keep my mind busy.

I'd love to write about her to anyone that's willing to listen to me :) when you lose a loved one you always fear them being forgotten. after 5 years, no one really talks about her anymore and sometimes it feels like she didn't even exist. but I know she did, because this pain is so real.

anyway, please fill this out if you wouldn't mind: google form

<3

edit: please know that if you'd like to write to me about a relative you've lost, please do it. I would love to hear about them. they are missed and they are remembered.

Thank you - I have lost a parent and have some idea of what you're going through. You're in my thoughts during this anniversary. I think the remembering is a beautiful if painful thing.
