I miss my mom

[live4christp1]

Today it's been 4 weeks since my mom passed away. Somedays it seems like it isn't real, I walk in their house expecting to see her in the kitchen.....she was always cooking something good or doing dishes. Somedays it seems like it's been an eternity since I've talked to her. Feeling sad today.

I would think this time (about a month later) would be very difficult, when something like this becomes "real." I am sorry to hear about your loss.

I cannot even imagine. I am so sorry and hope that with time, things will get better for you.

Cristy, please hang in there. I lost my mom to breast cancer last April and for me, time has made it a little easier. Every once in a while though, I will get that empty feeling. Go easy on yourself and give it time. I offer my support and understanding...oh and a hug.

I hope things get better for you. It's so difficult to get used to no longer having a person with you. I'm sorry for your loss.

You will have a lot of sad days, but they will eventually give way to happy memories Trust me.

You take care.

I'm sorry you are feeling the pain. It's still so fresh. I think that's completely normal.

I'm sorry July will be 8 years since my mother and stepfather were killed in an accident and some days are still very hard. I know you have heard this before but, it will get better with time. I didn't believe that when people said it to me AND I sorta wanted to slap them when they said it....but it is true.

Will things ever be the same again? No. But just because things will never be what they once were, doesn't mean that life won't be good again. Life will be good again and you'll laugh again....just not right now.

I am so very sorry for your loss and your suffering.

I just read the sad news about you mum when I was looking at your old thread and now I see this thread too. I am so sad for you and can't even begin to undestand how you feel. I hope your memories and your faith can bring you peace over time. Take care.

Thank you all! I think it's been really exacerbated today because the issue with my MIL (per my other thread today).

I lost my dad a little over two years ago, and I am sorry for your loss. It does get easier, but there are still days when I think wow I could tell dad this or that and then I remember he is gone. Just be happy with your memories.

When my Dad died we just had a memorial service at our church and the one lady made cards to be handed out that said "I thank my God upon every rememberence of you." Philippian 1:3 and every time I look at that card, I feel happy, because I have so many happy memories of Dad.

I'm so sorry. I can't imagine how hard it must be to lose a parent. My Husband and I have lost two of our closest Grandmothers in less than six months (one a week ago Saturday) and it seems almost surreal. I catch myself thinking I should go visit Grandma. If my boys do something wonderful or horrible, I find myself dialing one of their numbers to share with them. I find that although it is very tough, it brings me joy that my Husband and I had such close relationships with them that we think of them often and miss them dearly.

I'm sorry for your loss.

It is coming-up on six months now since my mother passed away. It has been getting easier to deal with, and I'm sure it will for you, as well. There will be ups and downs, of course. For example, after a good bit of time distracted by final arrangements and executing her Will, I've had the last few months to just grieve and reconcile myself. Now, I'm in a different situation: Not enough estate-related work to do to be truly "distracted", but with tax time, I do have to go over everything, all over again, reliving those first few weeks a little, just so I can get the information needed to file the forms. However, the support of my wife, my family and my community helps me through. I heartily advocate availing yourself of such resources as you can.

I am sorry for your loss.

FWIW, I lost my mother almost 19 years old, and I have still moments when I miss her so much, the pain is as sharp as the day she passed away. I think it's a hurt you never get over.
