She'd long had health issues, ever since I was young (over 30 years now), and I was her primary caregiver. She is best described as spunky or feisty, even as she got older and less well.
She knew about SL, and I had mentioned my avatar and shown her a few pictures but had no interest in it herself. She did think my avatar was pretty. I put a few pictures of her in a set on my flickr:
Pictures of my mother
She was something of a fashionista herself in her younger days and even until recently she still did what she could, she was very proud of her fingernails, which she did herself. I never did learn her secrets on that.
It's kind of hard, her dying just before my RL birthday (the 9th) and mother's day.
I miss her so.

How fortunate your mother was to have had you, who loved her so much :) Thank you so much for sharing your precious photos too!
I am so very sorry for your loss CC *hugs*
It was very nice of you to share pictures of your mother with us.
Our thoughts are with you. My sincere condolences to you and your family.
My condolences, CC. I'll say a prayer for her, and wish you much strength in these hard times. *hugs*
I'm so sorry. I lost my Dad last July and I still half expect him to pick up the phone when I call my Mother. When we're young we think our parents are invincible, can't imagine life without them.
*hugs* It's hard, but it does get easier with time.
Thank you for sharing your photos, what a beautiful and touching tribute. My heart goes out to you and your family.
Thank you for sharing this with us. You are in my thoughts and prayers during this very difficult time in your life.
Much love~

My condolences to you and your loved ones, I am very sorry.
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh honey oh oh oh. I ... I hadn't seen this when you and I spoke yesterday and I am so, so, so, so, so infinitely sorry for your loss, and I truly understand how it feels. Please, consider yourself hugged so very very tight, and let me know if you need to talk. I adore you and I'm so sorry.
I am so sorry to read this, and I feel very very sad for you that your Mother passed away. I stumbled on this while checking you out and your post brought tears to my eyes. Hugs from here.
Dear CronoCloud, I have missed seeing you and am so very sorry to think this may be the reason why. What a painful loss, and how fortunate for both of you that you were close.
