your right jeff she would want that....i miss my mom terribly but i know she wants me to be happy and i am living life to the fullest....i cry almost every day but iknow she wants me to go on....her death date is Dec. 8 and im singing in a concert that day....it will be a blessing and a nice tribute to her
I like to think Mom would want me to live my life to the fullest after she is gone, knowing that I did my best to care for her while she was here. It doesn't make the loss any easier, but certainly makes the future a bit less bleak, once some of the pain of loss lessens. We all have to move forward, as hard as it may be.
Thank you Michael, likewise. I am so sorry.
My mother passed last year. From no particular illness, she just fell, lost consciousness and was taken to the hospital. I think they put her through so many tests (nothing wrong found) when she came out her health had deteriorated, less than three weeks later back to the hospital, so many tests... By the time she came home she could hardly walk. She was here in hospice for a week. And, on my father's birthday she told me she was ready to leave this world. Within 48 hours she was gone, those hours were just the worse thing ever. And, that was last year, it has been a long and painful road for me. Now, I have days when I do feel the Peace of God surrounding me, yet there are moments like now when a wave of sadness overwhelms me. I have not gone thru all her things. Just open a dresser drawer, and there I found business cards for all the different jobs I have had in my career and a devotional card of Saint Jude. Dear God, who does that? Only a wonderful mother thinks of that. In another box I found my father's driver's license, their names on a checkbook from their account of years ago, a devotional card with Jesus on one side, and a prayer.
Please forgive me for the comparison, but i feel as if i went thru a war, a war to keep my mother alive and well, and the war was lost. And, nothing will ever be right.
Wish I could be up as I am most of the time, but my heart aches and need to let it out.
My condolences to everyone.
one year ago today I was speaking at my mom's funeral. I miss you mommy.
Dia, you said my feelings exactly. I knew my mom was dying (6 weeks tomorrow)but I just went thru life crying and wondering how on earth I would be able to live w/o her! Her headstone just went in and I went to visit it today. I cried the entire time. Don't know when I will actually be ok, just going to take life one day at a time. I don't know what I'd do w/o this site. I miss my mom so very much!
Yes what Martha said is true and it holds whether the person is 30 or 57. True adult. That is the more difficult part and can take a very very long time to come to terms with.
