My Sweet Dear Friend,
I look back, from day one you reached out and showed me nothing but kindness. I recall a poem you penned inspired me to write a poem about my mother. I was afraid to put my feelings out there, but your kindness lifted me up and gave me the confidence that I lacked. You have always given me honest and helpful reviews. Cat, I love you my friend, thanks so much for your support and kindness. My prayers are with you and your husband, wishing you both a speedy recovery. Portia
Comment from estory
you really poured your heart on the page here. it is very moving. I am sorry also for your loss; I lost my mother also this year, and you tell it like it is. It is hard to lose the one person who loves you more than anyone else in the world. there is nothing like a mother's unconditional love, it may be the closest thing you can come to being loved by God, here on Earth. I am sure your mother and my mother are in heaven; perhaps they are singing in the choir together! In fact, they probably are; and waiting for us to get there with them.

Estory,
Please accept my deepest sympathy in the loss of your mother. Thank you for your support and kindness. One thing we know for sure they are at peace, and I can see our mothers singing in the choir, looking down at us smiling. May God continue to keep you in His loving care. Blessings my friend....Portia

nobody loves you like your mother. I think that is definitely something I learned through that experience. I am writing a religious novel right now about how my grandfather became a Christian. trying to get a publisher but Concordia turned me down and I am waiting on Harper Collins. I think it would be a long road. but I am patient believe in the story and what God will do for it estory

A beautiful shout out to your fellow fanstorians in particular RG Star. It's evident he has reached out to you and the bond you now share is unbroken.
Wonderfully written and I'm sure he would be very honoured with your heartfelt and expressive thanks. No errors that I could see.
Cheers P

Hi Portia,
what a beautiful piece you have written here.
I am so sorry for your loss and I hope that the passing days/time will bless you with only happy memories of your mother. Your words have touched me deeply today. I have not had to endure the pain of loosing a parent yet and dread the day when I have to, but your advice on spending as much time as possible with them has made me think of such a time when they will no longer be around. Today I will call them. RG is a great warm hearted person that somehow manages to tap into everyone's sorrow and offer comfort and hope.
I Wish you all the best and thank you.
Brenda:))x

Firstly, my sympathies with the loss of your mom. You have expressed yourself well, and her significance in your life.
You've also expressed the importance of others in reaching out. I wish you peace.

Hi Portia,
I've not previously read you, nor have read me. But it was with a special glow that I felt the warmth and kindness in your soul as I read This.
We lost our oldest son (49 years old) just over year ago to cancer. We have buried three of our children. Eventually the pain diminishes but the memories don't. They're always there and there's not a soul on this Earth who can take them away. We have come to the point where we can think back on our children who have passed on and laugh at some of the memories. It's a good laugh that embellishes the memories so fondly.
My wife and offer our sympathy for your loss. there is a special bond between a mother and her children that is so different from that of a father and his children.
Both of my parents are gone (I'll be 70 years old in March) but I still enjoy fond memories that make me smile. It's a good feeling.
Wishing you strength and happiness in the days ahead. God Bless,
Alan & Diana

Alan & Diana,
The loss of your children, the pain I cannot begin to imagine. I am deeply sorry for the loss of your children. A mother's love is like no other. Losing my mom was very painful, I cannot even imagine the thought of losing a child. My mother lost her firstborn, my sister at a young age of 38 years old. In 2010, she lost a second daughter. I recall her saying a mother should never have to bury her children. You are right, we have memories of our loved ones and they can never be taken away. Thanks so much for you support and kindness. May God keep you both in His loving care. Blessings...Portia

You are welcome for the review. Your mother (and you) have had a tough road to follow, too. And yes, your mother was right ... our children should come to our funeral, we shouldn't have to go theirs.
And thank you for your kind words of condolence and support.
My wife and I will keep your family, and you in our thoughts and prayers. God Bless,
Alan
