Thank you for writing and sharing this ❤️ - I'm not a mom, and can only imagine what it would feel like to experience parenthood without her, but a lot of my own grief is fueled simply by the missed opportunity of being able to relate to her as a grown adult.

Thanks Lukas! I know you know. It's so weird when various events happen and you're like oh this is when my mom should be here. It's a lot to carry!
