BLUEBELL commented on Karen's group I miss my Mom!"My Mom was cremated and her ashes were laid to rest in the ocean per her wishes. She wanted no services or even a celebration of her life. We honored her wishes, But I wish I had a place at a cemetery where I could go visit her. I think it might…"

Brett Bowman commented on Karen's group I miss my Mom!"Marie, I am glad to see you post again. Mother's Day is my mom's birthday. Last years Mother's Day was really hard. I don't think it will be as bad this year. Seconds, minutes, and hours pass, and then it's another day. I…"

Madeleine replied to Madeleine's discussion What would you do if you could have your lost loved one back for just five minutes?"Hi Morgan, I'm so very sorry for your loss and heartbreak.

Brett Bowman commented on Karen's group I miss my Mom!"My sister kept some of my mom's voicemail to her. There is no way that I could listen to it. She also took some video footage of her while she was on Hospice. Seeing those would be very painful.
