The whole time I was writing that post I was thinking of other women (like you) whose mother's are still here, but not really, either because of issues like dementia, or estrangement, etc. Ill parents are very hard to cope with, particularly if you are the caregiver.

I can't imagine not having my mom still with us although because she's got dementia, it's like saying good-bye, one conversation, one visit at a time. I love how you imagine what it would be like if your mother were here still. You two would have had a blast on Mother's Day!
