I am sorry to hear about the loss of your mother. She was a real nice lady.
I remember going with her to an overeaters group years ago. She use to tell me she ate plain popcorn when she was hungry. I also enjoyed when she came into the shop and I got to cut her amazing head of hair. Maya fond memories of her comfort you during this time.
