Cindy Adams reflects on her mother, Jessica Heller, this Mother's Day, celebrating the profound impact she had on her life. Adams recalls her mother's journey from a tough upbringing to becoming an accomplished woman and single parent. No matter the challenges, Jessica was always there to support her daughter, from health issues to career obstacles. Even in her final years, before losing her to silence in a hospital, the memory of her mother's vibrant spirit remained central to Adams' identity.
The realization that my mother, once full of life, now lay silently in a hospital bed haunted me. She was my foundation, my everything.
Each year, I return to reminisce about my beloved mother who turned my nothingness into something beautiful. Her love shaped me.
