Sounds like your mom didn't want you to be alone and sad. She made sure someone was there to help you though the pain. Funny thing about life we don't know true bliss without true pain they have to go hand in hand.

My mother died in 1967, and my old man crapped out in 1958.

So I've had plenty of time to get over it.

Been many years since mom left to the great beyond. Strange the weird things that sometimes trigger grief even now.

She had her issues but I've never met anyone kinder.

My mother didn't care much about anything beyond the problems she had in her marriage to my father. Certainly not much about the day to day life experience of either of her sons. Do I miss her? Sure. Just goes to show ya how fucked up we humans can be.
