Hi Amanda,

Losing a mother to cancer is terrible. The pain is so raw and runs so deep. I lost my mother in December 2012 to pancreatic cancer. Like your mom, she was pretty young. I am young, too (35), and I really related to what you wrote on the "I Miss My Mom" wall--I, too, have thought that I will probably be alive longer without my mom than I was with her. And it feels so terribly unfair that our moms were dealt this deal. Shortly after my mother died, I had someone tell me, "there is nothing worse than the pain of a daughter losing her mother." I think that is true. If you ever need to chat, feel free to PM me anytime. Thinking of you.
