Why should you ever be done mourning? Does that mean to never feel sadness or grief again? Your mother's not seeing signs probably helps her to never feel grief. When I see those signs, I am bereft all over again. Today, the anniversary, he came and I spoke to him when I sliced a lovely, locally grown no-nitrates cured ham. Finding ham that Niko liked, and that I thought worthy of consumption, proved impossible. It was nice when he stopped eating pork so I didn't have to keep buying all those hams to try. He wouldn't have liked today's either, but I do.

You hunted for a comment by me from two years ago? You must have some search tool I don't know about.
