Keep waiting for my mom to call and tell me "Happy Birthday" 44 today but she died on aug 15th of 2005. :cry: Our birthday was the same day and she used to call me first thing in the morning, no matter where I lived to tell me happy birthday,(crying like an idiot writing this) so here i sit waiting for my "phone call from the dead" I don't think it's gonna happen you guys. Feel even more alone than usual today. My dad disowned me cause hes ashamed of me. Guess I need to stop feeling sorry for myself and "suck it up, tuff it out, and get thru it." Need to go for a bike ride instead of sitting here trying to "will" the phone to ring.

Happy Birthday, Reika, and many more!

My situation is similar but it's next month, our b'days are ten days apart. I think Mom can hear me. Sometimes I still read to her.

Happy birthday.Inspite of a poor relationship with my mom for most of my life,she is the one who remembers me on my birthday and I really do appriciate it.

A bike ride is a good release,gets the chemicals flowing.Then,can I suggest something a bit unorthidox?After returninf from the ride and doing some stretchs,can you put your daughter down for a nap and find a very quit place to "meditate"?Your mom may not be abe to call,but she may be trying to communicate her connection to you on this secial day.

I am not a new age hoodoo voodoo person,but I do believe that spirit does not disappear.Your seperation from your mother is an illussion of time and space in which we orginise our lives that we can better function on the physical plan.If you can still your mind,you may hear your mothers voice and feel her hugs and good will.Please just give it a try.

Happy Birthday Reika, and Happy Birthday too your mom. She called you on this day every year so you’d know, on this day, that you’d never be forgotten. She did this just in case one day she couldn’t call on the phone, and she had to call from your memory. Your memory phone is ringing Reika, pick it up, tell her all about everything…and don’t forget to listen. Enjoy your bike ride.

Despite your loss, try and remember the good times and take this day to honor that. That way you can still make this a Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday!

Don't be sad - celebrate your birthday, and by doing so, celebrate the special things your Mother did for you.

I think she would appreciate that.

Happy Birthday!

...So sorry, as I know it's very difficult when someone does understand us and they pass away...

And also, do as Krex says...I agree...My grandfather who passed last year is always around me when I need him the most.
