life update...β¬
a year ago
Well, I've been gone for quite a while. I'm currently trying to get my life back on track after some serious upheavals. My mom died. It happened about a month ago, and I'm still trying to come to terms with it and pull myself together. At first, I was just cleaning up the house, sorting out paperwork and other things. And now Iβm trying not to fall out of society, to maintain communication with many who came to my aid during a difficult period.
My mother has been seriously ill since 2014. Over the past few months, the cancer has left her very debilitated, and treatment has stopped helping. All these years I hoped that the disease would recede; we tried a huge number of lines of therapy, and each one gave us hope at first. But over time, they all stopped working, and my mother's condition slowly worsened. In October, her body stopped fighting the disease. She was losing her strength, dying in my arms. She's gone.
Now, I'm trying to force myself to live. I'm forcing myself to do at least something. I try to spend some time with my brothers, they help me to get my head and my affairs in order. I will try to return to work here soon. Creativity is what I would like to continue doing, it is what inspires me. I am grateful to each of you for your support, thank you for staying with me.

It took me some years to finally come to terms with my mother's passing and absence in my life (my father was a different story since they divorced when I was in my early teens and I saw him less in my life).
We're here for you though!. Take all the time you need to recuperate and don't put pressure on yourself to forcefully mingle with the community if it makes you feel uncomfortable (I know I ended up trying to do that within the first year, and it made me feel even more disconnected).
I know deep down your mother will always be there in your memories and your heart, and she'll always be proud of you!.
