CAN YOU EXPLAIN THE MEANING OF THIS QUOTE FROM CHAPTER 3

"She was lost to me then. I could see that. She was gaunt and drained from days of weeping, a tent of skin over her bones. When Benjamin disappeared he carried a part of her away with him, and there was nothing anyone could do to fill it."

Saul is referring to his mother after Benjamin was taken away by the government agents. Saul's mother gave up on life after her son was stolen from her: a parent's worst nightmare. She became a shell of her former self, a ghost simply existing day to day.
