No forgiveness needed sweetie. I'm perfectly fine with talking about mom. I'm in a good place currently.
My mom spent some time catatonic too. She even had that "waxy flexibility" thing where I could move her arm up into the air and it would stay there. Talk about freaky. But ya know what...even then, I could crawl into bed with her. Even on her worst days, I would put my head on her chest and listen to her heartbeat. It was so comforting.
After she died, I used to walk to the grave yard - a very long walk for me. I'd bring a beach blanket, and lay on top of her grave. It was not nearly as nice. Ya know, never in my life have I told anyone that. Let's keep it our little secret.
Really truly - I've faced the monster myself, and once I was properly medicated, the fog did lift. I have that hope for you. Emmy
