I have a memory that I can not erase.

The subject of cancer has never been really easy especially that I lost someone closest to me. I lost my mom to liver cancer about 5 years ago. I really haven’t been the same since then. I’ve changed a lot. I loved here a lot..but now I have a new family and i’am adopted and thankful for it. I will never forget her its just hard to even think when her anniversary comes up or ever her birthday. I couldn’t even take the fact that my science teacher was talking abou cancer. Everyday it seems harder i really don’t know who to talk to. I tried to talking to my “parents” but they i’am sure are getting tired of hearing it. I have written papers on her and her life and my “dad” thinks i should write about something else. I just can’t get her out of my mind she is this memory that is forever in my head. How do i try to go on with my daily life? Is it wrong that my “dad” dosn’t think I should write about her anymore?

i think it is okay to keep someones memory alive, after all they were very important parts of our lives. it’s tru they are gone from this planet but they don’t cease to exist in our hearts and minds. i’d just like to tell you that if that the fact that your mother is dead is causing you psycologycal problems or that you think it is, please see a doctor, it will help you to talk about it and you will discovers that sometimes these problems will go deeper than you think. besides that i am sorry to know that your mother died, but like you said you should be thankful for it. anyhow i hope it all goes well and god bless your mother.

I lost my father in ‘96 and I won’t ever forget him, I’ll always love him, and I don’t think I will ever be 100% over the loss. It can hit at the strangest times and I always get a little down around July now. Would you rather have loved and lost or not loved at all? Loosing is part of life and you just have to remember her and at times if it gets to much just remember. She’s still there and you can always talk with her. She’ll hear you and will always be right there be your side.
