["I've been trying to cheer my mom up a lot lately. She's kind of been struggling.", 'Im sorry to hear that. I know that can be stressful.', 'Yeah, especially since I live so far away from her. I let her video chat with my kids a lot to hopefully bring some happiness back into her days.']
Yeah I hope so too. That must be painful to bare.
My mom has been really struggling lately since her dad, my grandpa, passed away. She really took care of him a lot and it's been hard for her. I try my best to do things to cheer her up even though I live far away.
