I sometimes fear losing my mother.

Losing my mom is a fear I had since my childhood. I lost many of my loved ones but I have a large extended family on my mom’s side with a few supportive cousins. I had a relationship I really liked with a man who paid whenever we went out. I always remember him say to me “I’ve got the bill don’t worry about it”. I dated the guy for a little over a year. We have a photo together because he came to support me at my college graduation back in May 2015. I have been journaling a lot and working on a memoir that is basically from the onset of my mental illness through my 30s. I’ll be 39 in January 2020. My mom had a surgery in 2009 and she was in the hospital twice. I love my mom and I want her to know I appreciate her.
