I lost my mom when I was sixteen. That was 42 years ago, and I still miss her.

"Sorry for your loss" seems very petty, but nothing feels meaningful. Right after my mom's death I remember watching a commercial and thinking "Why does anyone care about breakfast cereal right now? Don't they know my MOM just died?"

Hang in there. She was obviously a very special person.
