I still missed my father terribly. Losing someone close is like losing a part of yourself, an arm, maybe. You keep trying to do all the things you used to do, reaching for a book, opening a door, passing the salt. And then suddenly it hits you:" a part of you is gone, and it's forever.
- Lisa Goldstein, Ivory Apples, p.71
