An evening in mourning

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

I'm not the typical person who have an easy time talking about private things in public but now I feel the need to write down some thoughts to ease my mind.

About five hours ago I walked in to my mothers apartment to pay her a quick visit only to find her laying dead on the couch.
My mother was 69 years old and pretty spirited for her age.
Just like other lady's in her age she had her ailments but nothing she couldn't handle so this came to a big surprise for us all.
At least the doctor said she seems to have passed away quickly and by the looks of it didn't feel any pain, probably something heart related.

I was always very close to my mother and we spent a lot of time together and we were often more like best friends then had a regular mother-son relationship.
We use to watch sports together, she loved football.
She even had a good taste in music most times and made me download everything from Leonard Cohen to Bob Marley and burn to CD for her.
I will always have all these great memories of her and they will live on forever.
I wish I just could have been given the chance to say goodbye.


So to my beloved mother, Eva. You will be missed like no other, I will love you always.

RIP
All We Ever Wanted Was Everything

My condolences, Nic. We're going through much the same for the last few months. It never gets better, but it does get easier.

My condolences Nic. Take care of yourself.
