It's not easy. My mother died last October way too soon and it takes much much less than anything specific to make me cry at a moments notice.
I always felt bad for Madonna after learning about her mother dying, but I realize now that I could in no way understand what she really felt. And even now, in my position, I actually still can't understand completely because I had so much more time with my mother than she did. Her loss must feel so much more like something missing, something she never had then something she had, cherished, took for granted at times, and then ultimately lost.
Thanks for sharing
