Just one thing? Good lord. The worst was seeing Mom's gravesite for the first time since we buried her. My uncle died a few months ago, and he was buried in the same graveyard. I knew this, but didn't actually realize what that meant until we were on our way to the graveyard, and by then it was too late. Seeing her stone, her name, was so, so much harder than I thought it would be. I wish I'd gone by myself the first time, because I absolutely lost it, and couldn't stop crying. Then I felt terrible, because I wasn't so much crying over my uncle as over Mom, who I miss, still, so hard. It will be four years this September, and it hurts, it hurts, it hurts. My poor aunt, who lost both her sister and her husband to the same disease.
