Members shared how their Mother's Day went, with responses ranging from joyful to bittersweet and deeply emotional. Several members described being honored by family with thoughtful gifts and quality time, while others reflected on mothers and loved ones who had passed, with one member spending the day caring for hospice families after sending a prayer to their late mother. A recurring theme was the power of love and community, with many offering warm encouragement to those for whom the day was painful, reminding each other that grief and joy can exist side by side.

So happy to hear most of you had a great mothers day. For the ones whose mothers day is sad or painful, or not so great, just know you are not alone. Many lose their mothers or are not connected to their mothers anymore and that can be painful, no matter what the reason. If your mother gave you life and you are still on this earth, you can celebrate that. 🙂 None of us gets through life without something painful. It makes me sad that some people can't celebrate with their mothers, but you can still celebrate motherhood in your own special way. I hope you were able to do that.

Thank you to all who answered my question. My mother is in another state but I love her dearly and sent her flowers and goodies I know she loves!!!. We talked on the phone and she is doing quite well. I feel really blessed to have such a loving mother.🥰 Lots of love to her.
