Hiatus

by workoutmommy on March 31, 2009

My mom lost her battle with cancer yesterday.  She was diagnosed just eight weeks ago.  I am absolutely crushed and therefore need to take a break to pull myself together and spend time with my family.

If you are waiting on an email or review from me, I am sorry for the delay.  I will get to it as soon as possible.

In the meantime, please hug and kiss your loved ones as much as possible because you just never know how much time they have left.

I am at a loss for words. I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your mother. 8 weeks is not enough time. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family. I hope you will take all of the time you need.

Wow, you and your family have really been weighing on my heart and mind the past 2 days, I wonder if sympathy can be felt that way. You’ll continue to be in my thoughts and prayers.

I wish there were something I could say or do that would ease the pain. But when I lost my father, while I appreciated that people were there for me, I still had to deal with the loss on my own.
My prayers are with you and with your family.

I am so, so sorry. Words fail in situations like these, so the most I can offer is to let you know that many, many people are holding you close to their hearts today and hoping that you will find a way through your grief. Your blog is an inspiration to many people, and I know your mother would be proud.
