While many people will be getting together, sending flowers, or calling to check in with their mom this weekend, there will also be many that can’t. Trisha Yearwood understands the feeling of missing her mom, and dad, who both have passed away. Trisha says that the instinct to reach for the phone to talk to them is still there, and doesn’t go away. But she likes to think they are still there looking over her, and while it helps, it’s still not the same as actually being able to talk with her loved ones that left the earth too soon.
Trisha Yearwood shares the feelings of losing her parents. (:37)
“Doesn’t it feel like, all of a sudden…as long as you have one parent there’s still somebody…there’s still somebody in charge. And once they’re both gone, you for the first time feel like I’m really on my own here and I still have…when something happens in your life good or bad or indifferent that’s the person you want to call and talk to you, and you always pick up the phone or you have this subconscious, unconscious…’there’s somebody I didn’t talk to today that I want to talk to’…and it’s them. And that doesn’t go away, it’s weird how that is. But you have to go in the direction of they’re here, and they’re listening, and they’re enjoying, but you just miss them, and that’s the thing that just really sucks.”
