[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As my mom was dying she could no longer speak. At one point I gave her a paper and pen and she gathered up enough strength to write the barely legible words, "I love you." It's a the last piece of paper she ever wrote on. I framed it and look at it every day. [/quote] This just made me cry. My mom never once said "I love you" to me, either in speech or writing. Yet I knew she loved me more than anyone in the whole universe. We are just not a family that expressed our sentiments like that. A few days before she died, fearing that I was running out of time, I said, "Mom, you know that I love you, right?" She rolled her eyes and replied shortly, "Duh!" And that was that. She was true to her non-sentimental self to the last. [/quote]
