My Mom took a piece of my heart and my soul with her when she went away. I'll never be whole again and I feel like I'll never be happy. I dream about her constantly and when I'm awake she's my central thought. I miss her so much and everyone keeps saying "it'll get better" or "everything happens for a reason" and it just doesn't help. I keep asking for signs that she's still around and sometimes I think I get them but I just don't know. 

I love you with all my heart, Momma! <3

I also talk to my Mom,I believe that she can hear me.I just wish I could hear her voice,just one more time.

Oddly, it does kind of help to talk to Mom...maybe she can hear me, who knows?  She's not physically here, but I'd like to think she is somewhere out there.  Went to a family graduation party yesterday; it was bittersweet.  Connected with some relatives who could not make it to my Mom's wake.  It's still very hard for me to talk about it w/out getting choked up.  I just keep reminding myself she is at peace and no longer in pain.  Went to the cemetary today to check out the inscription on the headstone; planted some petunias; I think she'd like that.  I miss you Ma.

Dear Friends:

I am so sorry about your loss. After a year of losing my Mom I still miss her deeply. I do not comment this except with 1 very good friend who adored her grandmother, lived with her, and misses her to this day.

Today I was lighting a candle (I am a spiritual Catholic with deep respect for other religions) to Christ of the Divine Mercy. My Mom was/is devouted to Him. I have a photo of my Mom next to Him. I asked for to be forgiven for an extraordinary Mother was given to me, and now I do not know how to live without her. I asked my Mom to forgive me for I am not as strong as she (my Mom lost her own mother when she was 11 months old, was raised by her cousin and wife who were very poor. Yet, manage to become a lawyer, and a judge while being spirital and kind). How does anyone follow this? The moment I finished saying to be forgiven, it started to rain. I know they were listening.

I must do all I can to carry the cross of losing my Mother. It was a sign from God.

 

I wish everyone in this blesses group to band together and give each other the strength we lack.

"The greater the love, the greater the loss"

After 5 months, I find myself mostly in a state of insensibility. I dont cry everyday now.  Maybe it's my body's way to preserve itself. It's like I'm not in touch with my emotions most of the time. Tears are only triggered when someone talks to me about Mom, or I suddenly remember something we used to do, or something about the way she was.

Ann, I also call out the word ''Mom'' sometimes, I try to imagine how I said it calling her when she was here. But now she can't answer and I can't say that word as I used to.

Rachel, I'm very sorry for your loss. My mom died on April 6, 2013, suddenly and unexpectedly. Everyone's loss is different, but there are many days that still feel the shock and denial, though less and less strongly. A day or so later, the shock wears off, and those days can be really hard. So, for me, overcoming the shock and denial is a slow process that often feels like a slap in the face. Being able to come here and connect with others who are at various stages of grief, even if it's just reading comments, has been very helpful. I hope you find comfort here, too.

Dearest Rachel, it's been two years since my mom died and I miss her more and more every day.  Sometimes I just call out "Mom" so I can hear the word and know that I have a mom somewhere if not here.  I just wait for the day we can be together again.  I am not a believer in Heaven but I do believe there is something after death and that's where I am going because my mom is there.

Very sorry about your Mom, Rachel.  It's very tough in the early weeks, no question.  I know what you are feeling; it's hard to write or say what has happened.  Just take things one day at a time.

Hi Rachel Ann I'm so sorry about your mom, what you are going through right now is common. I don't know how long it will last I lost my mom Dec 27,2012 and I believe that I'm past the shock/denial phase. Just know you aren't alone, we are all here for you, to chat or to email. Take care of yourself in this difficult time that is very important.

My mother passed on June 8... just typing that is really hard. I'm here to find support however I can. Pretty speechless though. Wondering if the surreal/shock/denial phase I'm in now is going to change with a huge slap in the face or if I'm just going to ease out of it slowly? Wondering a LOT of things, but you know. That question came to mind first, for whatever reason.
