She Didn't Want To Visit Her Mother, Until She Received A Phone Call That Changed Her Life Forever

She'll regret her decision for the rest of her life

She Didn't Want To Visit Her Mother, Until She Received A Phone Call That Changed Her Life Forever

The best way it can be summed up is by something the 'This Is Us' creator, Dan Fogleman, said. Dan also lost his mother. He said, 'My mom died 10 years ago, unexpectedly. It's the hinge upon which my life swings.' If there ever was a way to describe this feeling of total loss, this it is for me.

Call your moms and dads. Call your siblings. Take your grandparents to lunch. Plan a party. Work a little too much. Talk to God often. Cry when you want to and, most of all, think about how soft your mother's hand was when she would pat you on the leg and say, 'Love you, baby.'".

We should certainly all take Erica's words to heart. Reach out to people you love more frequently. Show them you treasure them. You never ever know what moment is going to be the last you two make!
