I lost my father to cancer a couple of years ago. He too was in hospice care, in the living room of the home I grew up in. I can so vividly remember helping my sister care for him. I can actually feel his arms around me as we would swap the sheets from the other side of the bed. At the time, I dreaded doing it because the reality of what was happening to him was terrifying to me. But now, looking back, and am so thankful that every afternoon for 3 weeks, we had a nice embrace. I "talk" to my dad when I need to, and he is always there, just like your Mom. And she will always be. That was a really beautiful post, thank you. I lost my father to cancer a couple of years ago. He too was in hospice care, in the living room of the home I grew up in.

She did come to you. I know it. Your piece captures so perfectly that longing for someone so loved. Be assured she is with you.

I am so gald that she comes to you in your dreams, although not nearly enough. I can still picture her and smell her as you describe. :) I miss her too!
