Michelle, So sorry for what you are having to go through and especially at this time of the year when everyone is celebrating the holidays. My Dad passed away in March and this year it will be 10 years. I still think of him every single day. It will get easier and you will be grateful for all of the precious memories and times you had together. Your mom must have been very special, because she sure raised her daughter well, and I can tell you were loved very much. Trish
