I love, love, love the angel hug blanket. I hope I don't have to use this gift idea for a long time, but you can believe I will as soon as the opportunity arises.
I can't imagine losing my twenty-seven year old son. I am fortunate that I have not had to experience that particular hell of grief. But when my mom passed away very suddenly when I was in my thirties, the gifts I remember most are the stories about her childhood her old friends and family told me. Oh, how I cherished them. How many of them surprised and delighted me. It showed me parts of my mom that I never knew existed. I only wished I could have heard them when she was alive.
Sending you strength and solace and wishing you a lifetime of happy memories.
