Thanks Rachel; it all went well. We tried to focus on happy things and memories. I was resistant to hosting thanksgiving; ultimately my family convinced me to host and I think it did me some good. I thank you all for your support.

2011 will be the first thanksgiving without that special woman in my life. although she is not with me in the flesh her spirit will be. As challenging as it will be, I will remain grateful for all that life has blessed me with, especially the love of Ana Davila, the greatest woman I will ever know...the one who guided me far enough to know I could handle the rest the journey. Enjoy your first Thanksgiving in a long time with abulela mami. Missing you more than ever.

@ Jun.  I'm sorry and I feel your pain.  Please hold on to your wonderful memories and I hope your faith will heal you. Stay strong and trust that God is not the one who took your mom away but God will help you cope with your loss.  Remember, smoking increases one's chances of lung cancer and that implies (unfortunately) that lung cancer occurs in people that don't smoke.

This is a time of the year to say thanks.  But I am not going to thank God because he took my Mom away 3 months ago.  Mom was a very loving, caring person who made everyone around her happy.  She never smoked a day in her life and yet she died of lung cancer.  Does not make any sense to me.

I miss mom so much, I feel like theres a deep, dark hole in my soul that cannot be filled. My family will be here with me tomorrow, but theres going to be that missing part of me that will not be filled by anything or anyone. I would have wanted to stay home, in bed all day tomorrow but my family insist we have to do something; I feel like I'm being pushed to move on; I feel so stuck.......the pain is physical, I never knew that grief could hurt physically.

I wish this site had a like Button on post. That is So true Kevin..I'm very sorry your feeling that way Elaine. I too had alot of those same feelings at first but if my mom knew I was thinking that way she would kick my butt. I miss my mom so much and life is so hard without her..I'm taking one day at a time and doing the best I can. I know my mom would want me too. When we found out my mom was dying she was more worried about us then herself (just like her) She made me promise I would take care of myself. I love you so much mom <3

Elaine, I hope this doesn't come off the wrong way but my mom passed away in June and although the pain of losing my mom was even greater than I could ever imagine, life is a gift given to you by your mom (and your dad of course) that I would hope you never give up.  I love my mom and when I (try) to treat others as well as mom would treat others, there she is, right next to me...In spirit.
