broken

While we continue to live, breathe, and try to go through the motions of a life that has suddenly taken a very difficult and bumpy bend, the very thought that i will never ever see my mom alive again just makes me want to give up on any sense of normalcy.

i cannot put into words what i feel and wish and hope for, since we suddenly lost our beloved Mommy to brain aneurysm on monday night... I don't think any child who has lost a parent can ever really express the depth & extent of the grief, the sense of loss, the painful reality that the woman who made their house a home is now gone...

But Mommy's body is still here. And she deserves the grandest production ever we can give her before we inter her body to the earth. She deserves the rock star treatment and all that jazz, and we will celebrate her life as she would want to.

So i continue breathing... Because Mom wouldn't want us doing otherwise. Because Mom deserves only the best from all seven of us. Because Mom was the life of every party, and she will have the biggest party we can ever give her.

Breathing is such an effort, knowing my Mom will never ever EVER breathe, smile, laugh, talk, sing, dance, walk and scold us again.

I miss her every day. Every single day...

I am in broken pieces. I wonder when i or any of my siblings will ever be whole again.
