Miss You

This is journaling about the day my mother got hurt and how it changed my life forever.
Journaling reads:
I will never forget that morning : January 15, 2001. You called me at 8am and told me you had slipped on the frost on the front porch when the cat darted out the door. You told me your neck and head were hurting and I asked if you had hit them. You said you hadn't but that you just needed to talk to me for a minute. All of a sudden you told me to call 911 and went unconscious. I yelled for the boys and told Tim to run to the neighbors and call 911 because your phone was off the hook. I ran so fast and will never forget the urgency I felt while trying to get there. Andrew held the phone and talked to you the whole time till I got to the house. I could hear the ambulance behind me as I got there. You had a brain aneurysm and they didn't think you would live on the lifeflight to Dallas. You did and after 5 weeks in ICU, you came back to rehabilitate at St. Michaels. You came home on March 22, 2001 and I didn't know that you would leave us on April 26, 2001. I miss our phone calls just to talk about the bird you saw outside. I miss talking to you for an hour on the phone about nothing at all but enjoying every minute. I miss sharing my life with you and think of how much you have missed. Being a great grandma, three more grandbabies, my boys graduating high school and one joining the Navy. I miss so many things. But most of all...
I miss you
Profoundly. Deeply. Forever.
