It hurts really bad at first, so in the sense that it doesn't hurt so much after time, that, it could be said, is where it might get better. But the missing them part never fades.
@calicuz I know the feeling will never go away but maybe it does get better. I just thought about it for a minute and realized it's been five years since my mother passed. I can't believe it's been that long! I don't think I grieve anymore but I do still miss her.
