Since I was far removed from my family 4,000km away, it was not until a couple of years after I had surgery, that I caught up with my mum and family, my father died when I was 15 years old. So there was no support there. I had a very supportive mum, and my mum would write to me and the card, birthday card, Christmas card or letter would often start of with "My dearest daughter" or "My darling daughter", why? My mum loved her children and a long time ago she said to me, if I had a daughter I would name her Sarah. No, my real name is not Sarah, although I seriously did consider taking it as my first name and yes I do like the name Sarah very much.
If my memory serves me well, I first caught up with my mum in 1993, which was two years after I had my surgery or nearly five years since I last saw her. I was doing contract work for a government department in Bundaberg, drawing bridges and designing roads. I was staying at a local hotel and my mum was on her way to see her sister in Brisbane.
After meeting her at the bus terminal (coach), she put her arms around me and said, "I missed you so much", later in the same hotel room my mum said, "I thought you was going to look like a drag queen, but obviously not". I cannot remember the exact words in regard to this. That was so funny to hear that. However, I believe, I put my mums perception of what her one and only daughter looked like to rest and in doing so made her proud of me.
One of the reasons why I left Susan's was, I returned to help my mum, who had several medical problems, long story short it was decided that I would be with her and she would not die alone. One of the few things she said before she passed away and I can vividly see and hear her as she walked away from the dining table was, "you do not know, how much I love you", it was a nice thing to say at the time. My mum passed away nearlya year and half agotwo years ago, but writing down what she said to me brings uncontrollable tears to me, every time I read this passage. . . . .
QuoteMy Dearest Daughter Sarah
I saw this card and straight away thought of you. I miss you so much and I always look forward to seeing you. I do hope you get a chance to move closer and somehow, I can come and visit and that is not so isolated.
All I ever wanted for my children to be happy, healthy and to always know where they are. So take care my daughter Sarah of yourself.
Love you heaps
Mum & Tia
