I do know how you feel and what you mean by the "angries". My Mom died the year Lynn was born and I still get that way. Also enjoyed all your Paris pics. Hi, It’s Lynn’s Mom.

I too have lost my mother, just over 10 years ago...I was 16...and in the last month also my grandmother, my mums mum, who I lived with for some of my teenage years after my mothers death…. Mothers Day is always hard, along with my birthday, her birthday, Christmas, the anniversary of her death and occasionally just any old day for no particular reason…STILL…10 years on….But this mother day was even harder as it was the first without both my mother and beloved grandmother… I read in your blog that you felt like you were drowning in your own soul…I have never heard it described like that, I have never been able to put words to my emotions, but that is exactly it… The thing about these special days is not only the aching emptiness for that which is gone but the feeling like you are in your own bubble, screaming and no one can hear you. When you look outside of your own world peoples lives go on, they celebrate with their mothers and nothing seems wrong, life goes on for them but you feel like you are trapped in this bubble and nothing will get you out….no-one will understand, no one can understand…it’s a very lonely place…. Anyway, in saying all that, and not meaning to emphasise the sadness or negatives as I am blessed to have the remaining family that I do, but I appreciated what you had to say about your mum…I read some of your other entries and she sounded like a remarkable lady… God Bless Hi, I also am a complete stranger who stumbled across your blog…its funny that i sometimes get so desperate to find someone who understands that I “google” my situation…

And I am glad I did. You see I just lost my mom in january due to a hard and long battle with breast cancer. So this is my first mothers day without her and of course on top of everything its my birthday too. I'm not sure how tomorrow/today is going to work (thus my google search for similar stories) but reading your post at least makes me feel a little like I'm not alone. So I guess I'm just saying, thank you for your post... I hope you can find joy tomorrow. Good luck with the "angries." =) Matthew 11:28-30 Hello,
