What is that part of the brain that keeps forgetting that my mother has been gone for over a year, and keeps thinking that as long as I’m near her house, I should drop by for a cup of tea? Or that thinks maybe I should bring her to the school plays she always enjoys? That keeps thinking of gift ideas for her? When does that part of the brain catch up?
@Julie for me, those thought have gradually decreased in frequency over the last 17 years. Still happens every now and then, but rare and fleeting and sweet.
