"Dear American Mamas, I know I’m supposed to enjoy the Holidays, but I can’t. You see, last year, my mother passed away on Thanksgiving weekend. I know I’m supposed to be thankful for the time we had, but I’m bitter. I want more. All of the sights and sounds and smells of the season are just reminders of what we lost. How do I get back the joy of Thanksgiving after losing such a vital part of my life?"
