Dear Mommy

I realized that only you recognize when I am not doing well.
Who else noticed that I've lost muscle in one night?

I'm not saying that she has a good eye, because she could have just noticed that I've been more down than usual.
But I thought about the people I called 'close friends' back in Sudbury.
I didn't see them for a month because I wanted to avoid people, and when we did see each other, they never mentioned to me any change.
This doesn't mean that they're bad friends or anything of the sort, but I realized that I haven't found somebody who can really 'replace' my Mom.
