One year ago today…

my life changed forever.

Today, my Bro and I went to visit my Dad’s ashes.

Because next week is the anniversary of my father’s passing, we will be doing a small Buddhist ceremony for him with some other loved ones.

But today was just for us.

    I’m so sorry, Joz. My mom died of a massive brain hemorrhage 7 years ago.

    I’ll be thinking of you and your family.

    Seriously, JJJ, I’d love to talk to you sometime about my upcoming play, because it was sparked by a week my sisters and I spent with my dying father. It was intense, and I know that first year was harder than anyone ever tells you it’s going to be. -hugs- to you. It gets better. I promise!

    It’s odd, I was thinking of that today, and how I hadn’t visited your blog in a while, now its the anniversary. My condolences to you and your family, he will live on in your children.

    I’m so so sorry. Every anniversary of my mom’s death (approaching third one later this year) is very difficult for me. I hope you can find some peace this week.

    Hi, I came over from Superha. I’m so sorry for your loss. It does get easier over time. You start to remember the best of times or even times you barely knew you remembered rather than the end. Hang in there, the first anniversary is always the hardest.
