Y'all,
Today was 'clean out' day (his clothes, etc.) and that helped a lot.
As was said it hits you when your last parent leaves cause you are 'alone'. Took some time to wrap my head around that (even though I'm 54 with a child of my own). Strange but true that you feel that way.
I cannot say what all of the prayers and messages have done to help. Y'all really are 'family'. My home is open to you all.
Thanks from a grateful Cat.
