02-06-25 deep loss
I saw the name when I picked up my phone to answer it. I struggled to answer as I knew in my gut why he was calling. My best friend’s son, Reid, was calling to let me know that his Mom had died today.
I am in an emotional coma, the sobs come in waves. She was the person who knew me best, and loved me even more in spite of, or because of, that. I have so many tales of laughter and tears. The memories are running like a slideshow in my brain at the moment.
I last saw her in July.
I planned to go see her for her 70th in March, but had to wait to see my surgeon before locking down the plan. I was waiting to FaceTime her until I knew. I wish I hadn’t waited.
She set me on the path that led to who I am and what I do today.
I will forever miss my Jackie
