Something I noticed today

I was FaceTiming with my mom a while ago, and it kinda hit me

As I’ve grown older, moved out and started living my own life
She has grown and aged too.

Time waits for no one, and I knew that but when I was staring at her I got really emotional

There will be a day when she’s no longer with us… and it’s something I’ll have to learn to deal with

Then she started judging my outfit again and roasting me for being too emotional and she brought me back to reality

A couple years back, my mom was having issues with low iron levels, which can be serious like internal bleeding or cancer. It ended up being a hiatal hernia, common among people her age, that was an easy fix through surgery. But it really hit me that my mom's getting on in age too and made me realize I'm really not ready for her to be having typical health problems that comes with her age. Thankfully, she's been doing perfectly fine since, but I'm not looking forward to her getting older.

@Ducky I’m sorry ducky

it’s something that no child wants to admit, but life waits for no one unfortunately
