Casey, I know exactly how you feel. People tell me time will lessen the pain. But, time hasn't really done that for me. When my mom first died I had a hard time functioning in life. I am now able to do that. But, I too miss mom on nice days, and days where family is near. I feel like she should be with us too! It has truly been tough!!!
Thanks..
My support is with you Casey.
I miss my mother so much. Everytime I work on her memoir, I just break down thinking about how she doesn't have another day to enjoy life, she didn't think she would go so soon. None of us thought she would. I can't handle it. I have nothing without her. I hate life.
I have thought hard about posting somethings that occurred while we were on vacation. Just a little background information. On Dec 9th my Mother passed away in her sleep and this just rocked my world more than I could ever imagine. During her celebration of life, I selected a specific song to be played, Faith Hill's "There you'll Be". It pretty much sums up how I feel.
In addition to that song, I had decided I would have a tattoo of a Butterfly placed on my shoulder to memorialize my Mom.
Anyhow, on the first day at the cabin I see this perfect little butterfly on the ceiling of the cabin deck. It was perfect in every way. Before long, this butterfly was in the cabin itself, and I would look up, it was always near me, regardless what part of the cabin, it would just appear. I was not thinking about Mom when I at first saw the little butterfly, but as it followed me around in the cabin I could not help but wonder. Then on day 2 we went sight seeing and did a little bit of mild hiking and every time I turned I had a butterfly flying around me and landing on my shoulder. I felt nothing but pure joy.
On Day 3, we had went trail riding in the mountains and it was beautiful. However, shortly after returning to the cabin we discovered the AC was out. We were placed in another cabin and after a few minutes of unloading our stuff into the new cabin came on Mom's song "There You'll Be" . I really feel like this was Momma showing me approval and letting me know she was with me.
I say this vacation was a total "WIN"! It gave Jerry and Me time to reconnect in a stress less environment, but also to remind me that Mom is always with me.
Andib, I am sorry to hear about your loss and you describe it perfectly..I feel like i am just roaming on earth without a family...its horrible. I miss my mother so much, especially on sunny day and weekends where families are supposed to be together...and celebrate. I just want to die so many times.
Andib, I love the pic. Wow, you lost both parents within the year. I lost both parents, dad in 2012 and mom in 2013. It is indeed very painful at best. Hang in there, we are all here for you. Carolynn, it has been 10 months since my mom died and a year and 10 months since my dad died. And I know just what you mean about the pain being worse sometimes. Just know that we all understand what you are going through and are here for you. I pray for blessings and comfort to all who have lost a parent. It is the toughest thing I have ever gone through...
