Thank you for this. I have grieved for the loss of a good friend. I keep thinking what did I do? What did I say? I know that while I was caught up with serious issues with my son, she was also having issues in her own life. Maybe I wasn't attentive to her and she thought I wasn't a good friend. I'm not sure that she knows that I was going through a lot at the time and I was only able to take on step at at time. I think she was doing the same. Her husband was ill and her mother was elderly and needed care. I don't know what happened. I just know in the last few years, I have texted, called, emailed and Facebooked. I've sent cards. In the last phone call from her... after three calls from me... she told me that she was busy! Well ok. I haven't called since and and I'm trying to put it behind me. I've stopped the cards, I haven't called and only wished her a happy Birthday on Facebook. I have to let it go.
