Friday 23 November 2007 : Gertie and I

Comments

my mother died 12 days and 39 minutes ago.

This is me and my new friend Gertrude, sitting on her bedroom floor looking in her mirror.

My mom's old friend bought me Gertie to "help me." She's a Kodak X812 IS.
When she got sick I quit photography, I guess I'll try and take it up again.

What I hate most right now is how everyone is telling me I should start feeling better.
It's not been two weeks since the woman who's 23 chromosomes made up half of me left, and people have the nerve to tell me to feel better already.
Well I'll tell you something. I will never feel better. Not ever. I'll have good days and bad days, but I will always miss my mother indescribably.

Terrible news! I knew we hadn't seen you for a while but I thought you'd just drifted away from blip. I don't really know what to say except deepest sympathies. Don't let anyone set you a timescale for dealing with the grief, do that in your own time. And while you will always miss your mother I'm sure some part of her other than just those 23 chromosomes will always be there with you.

i know.. it's been 14 years since my mother died and i still miss her. i won't say it, 'cos ppl would just feel pity/whatever.

Hold on to her memory.

I think of my mom every day. Just now, writing this, I can hear her laughing. The memory feels very real - even after seven years. It makes me happy to remember her.
