I call her more often than before--before she's gone. Louder.
Sometimes, I even shout out her name when I stay alone at home. If someone sees me doing so, I would be mistaken as an old woman suffering from dementia. In reality, I understand what happened to her. But I simply do not want to accept it. So, I behave as if she is still alive.
