Losing someone who meant the world to you can make you change in ways you never thought possible. Then it could also destroy you. Me? I’m just trying to piece through this puzzle we call life while missing the woman who raised me as her own. My life will never be the same again. She may be in a better place, but my heart is still aching for the daily phone call, trip to see her or shopping trip with her. This is me now. Forced smile. Forced to be awake. Just lost.

Losing someone important to you due to their own choices can be one of the most difficult experiences any human could endure. The sheer part of letting go is the hardest.
