Well, it's been a couple of weeks now and the last conversation I had with Billie was Mother's Day. I sure miss my sifter! We used to speak on a daily basis before the stroke... I'm having serious withdrawals from my sifter and don't know how to deal with it. I look at photos of her and try to tell her how much I love and miss her and wind up running for tissues to dry my eyes.
I never knew just how difficult it could be to be without someone I love so much. I am trying to be strong but it is not easy. I feel like my soul has been drained, the sunshine has faded and I spend a lot of my days reaching for the phone so I can call her and see how her day is.
This is not intended to be a pity party... just my sincere thoughts.
I miss you so much Billie Jo! I pray you know just how much I really do.
That said, to all of you that visit this site regularly.... don't give up. Keep sending her those well wishes and notes of encouragement. I apologize for not being able to provide more information than what you see, but we do what we can. I know the family is busy keeping up with all the day-to-day activities and responsibilities. Having time for phone calls is not priority, I can understand. I can only assume that things are going well at that big blue house on Jordan Street. No news must be good news!
