A mom and blogger at Grief to Hope, Nikki Pennington, lost her mother to brain cancer 5 years ago.
Although it may seem like a long time to some, anyone who’s lost their Mother knows it feels like it was yesterday, whether it’s been just a few weeks or 20 years. Nikki recently shared her personal experience with loss in a Facebook post that has gone viral and it’s absolutely heartbreaking!
“And when she dies you’ll search for her no matter how long she’s been gone,” she said. “You’ll search for her the minute she leaves in that very room. You’ll search the sky. You’ll search online. You’ll search group forums. You’ll search old messages. You’ll search old text messages. You’ll search old letters. You’ll search old cards. You’ll search for her. You’ll search old high school yearbooks. You’ll search old photo albums. You’ll search the memories of old friends. You’ll search her things. You’ll even search the crowds.”
