    Thanks and we’ve been managing. Helps that both of us go to therapy and I know my therapist at least has been a massive help in teaching me about grief, how to deal with it, and how to keep my mother alive in small ways.

      I’ve always thought that Terry Pratchett said it best:

      No-one is finally dead until the ripples they cause in the world die away, until the clock wound up winds down, until the wine they made has finished its ferment, until the crop they planted is harvested. The span of someone’s life is only the core of their actual existence.
