It happened again last night. Mom crying in the middle of the night, soft sobs coming from her room. She doesn’t know I’ve heard her, but it’s happened many times since dad died. I worry about her. Dad was everything to her, and he worshiped the ground mom walked on. Now it’s just the two of us. Sure, the other kids still come around for the holidays, but not as much as they used to. There’s always an excuse to avoid their own mother.
What am I supposed to do? How can I support her and love her, without making her feel worse? I miss dad too, but last time we talked about how much we missed him, she couldn’t stop crying for days and all his pictures got turned face down.
If anyone out there has lost a parent, and they could give me some advice, I would be grateful.
