i found this wonderful, but sad at the same time, made me worry a bit
as anyone knows who reads my posts, i am very close, exceptionally close to my elderly mother who lives far away now....my mum phones me 4x a day where we have great conversations, which are productive and reassuring for me as well...and as i often do on the call, i told my mum how special she is as a mum and how much she means to be, i told my mum ' no one could take your place mum, your one in a million and very special '.
and my mum replied ' likewise son, you're everything to me and life wouldn't be worth living without you'.
and i cherished my mums words as i always do, but at the same time i felt worried and saddened by them, as i do have anxiety and depression to at times, and i thought ' i pray nothing happens to me then, because what would happen to my mum? it would devastate my mum ' and i couldn't bear that happening...
can anyone offer any help with this? maybe another perspective on it?
