One of my friends had lost his mother and still in a depression. I frequently visits her and asked how is she feeling now but she is out of track and not comfortable to come back in the normal day today’s life with the spirit which she restored before this mishappening .she is not lost herself in the gloomy dark world due to losing her mother but she is facing a sense of guilt why she had unnoticed the alarming sign of her mother’s abdominal pain.
