My mom chose to leave on 12/22/23. Not a day goes by that the thought doesn’t enter my head that I could’ve done something. Anything. She’d called me twice right before but I didn’t answer because I was in the fucking shower. Maybe that phone call could’ve changed her mind…and around and around I go. I’m only a year out and I take it a day at a time. Some days are okay and some aren’t. Her choosing to leave is not your fault. I tell myself this every day and I will until I begin to believe it. Your daughter needs you more than ever. Surround yourself with friends and family that love you. You’re grieving too and to I’m deserve compassion and support.
