Another okay morning. Having a little anxiety and sadness, but it is not overwhelming. I should be grateful, but instead there is a sense of guilt.

My Mom is surrounded by cats. She loved them so much.

Amen. And what would heaven be without our furry little friends? They sure know how to love, too.
Luisa, I remember very well how hard it was to say goodbye to my mom's things. I tried to do it very quickly. The thing is, a year and a half later, I still find things. It is so hard.
I try to visualize it from another perspective. I can just imagine that if I had died first how hard it would have been for my mom if to go through my things. I can just see her going through my closet and crying. I know what I would say to her if I could. I would say, "Mom, these are just clothes and things that I collected. It's you that I love. Don't worry. You can't throw that away."
I am so sorry for your loss. I believe that your mom is young and healthy again. She has perfect vision. She will never be sick again. I believe that she is surrounded by people that she loves, most of all God. Your mom is fine. It's you that I am worried about. You have a broken heart. You are in good company here. If you ever want to talk just know that we are here. I will say a prayer for you tonight.
God Bless You. Love hurts. I can tell you this much. As sad as we are now, we would all go through it again. Our mom's were worth it.
Keep them as long as you like. There is no hurry and no rule that you have to get rid of them. My Mom's things are part of what I have left of her. My sister and I still are hanging onto her house. I especially will find it hard to sell it. I am tearing up just thinking about it. If I were honest with my feelings, I would say what I really want is her back. But I can not have that. I pray that where she is now is a place of such peace and harmony, that she would be thinking " This is unbelievable!"

I am sorry for your recent loss. It was very hard for me too Luisa to go through Mom's things. The hardest part was watching the boxes go out the door to be donated. I kept a few articles of her clothing and some other personal items. I am glad I did now, because they hold pleasant memories. My Mom passed away Feb. 14th 2017. I miss her so much.
