DEAR MANDY,I WAS PLAYING ON THE COMPUTER AND FOUND THIS SITE. I READ YOUR STORY AND IT BROUGHT BACK SO MANY MEMORIES, AS SOME YEARS AGO, I TOO, LOST MY MOM. THE CLOSER A FAMILY MEMBER IS TO THE PARENT IT SEEMS AT THE TIME ANYWAY, THAT OUR HEARTS ARE GOING TO JUST BREAK IN HALF.MY MOM PASSED AWAY AT HER APT. IN 1987. TO THIS DAY, I WANT TO CALL HER OR GO OVER FOR COFFEE. IN MOM'S DAYS THE ELDERLY WERE ALWAYS PRIVATE AND RARELY EXPRESSED ADMONITION OR FEELINGS. BUT I FEEL SO LOVED BY BOTH OF MY PARENTS. THEY ALWAYS TOOK THE BEST OF CARE FOR ALL OF US[12].MY MOM AND I EVEN WENT OUT DANCING SOMETIMES. SHE WOULD SECRETLY HAVE TWO OR THREE GUYS AT THE TABLE BY THE TIME I GOT BACK TO MY TABLE AND WOULD SAY;BARBARA, I WANT YOU TO MEET SO AND SO' AND IT WOULD BE THE SAME WHEN I GOT BACK. I LOOK AND LAUGH AT ALOT OF OUR MEMORIES. IT;S WHAT HELPS US HEAL. YOU TOO SOUND LIKE YOU AND YOUR MOM WERE SO CLOSE. BELIEVE ME THO, NOW I KNOW YOUR HEART WON'T BREAK IN HALF.I THINK THAT IS WHAT LOVE DOES . IT HEALS ALL. IF YOU EVER WANT TO JUST TALK MANDY I AM HERE. NANA
