[quote=Anonymous]I was 31 when my dad died and 37 when my mom passed. My kids knew them because I had my kids young. I did not know my own grandparents because my parents had me in their 40's. It is physically painful sometimes when I think about how much I miss my mom--dad too. I am now 42 and have questions about the mid life changes and no mom to ask. The holiday season makes me depressed. I held dad's hand as he passed and watched him take his last breath. I made the decision to take mom off life support and she passed 4 days later. The crying slows down but the empty feeling never vanishes. It is like having a hole in your soul. [/quote]
