I feel for all of you. So many times, I also thought it would be easier if i could just go be with my mom. It scares me. I have been thinking about the upcoming holidays and how hard it is going to be.

I am having one of the worst weeks ever and I have a feeling, next week isn't going to get any better! My birthday is next friday..my first without mom! I've been fighting having to go into the hospital for a few days..I'm just so exhausted, physically and emotionally! Sometimes I wonder if I will have the strength to continue on!

My thoughts and prayers are with everyone that is going through a loss. It doesn't matter how old you are, everyone needs their mother..and I need mine bad!:'(

I am having such a hard time today.  I had been doing so much better and having some family problems and just want my mom to talk to and tell me its all going to get better and to hold me and hug me.  Am crying non stop. Had my first thoughts of how much easier it could be if I was just able to join my mom in heaven, but it was just a fleeting thought, I'd never do anything to intentionally harm myself-that is selfish and my mom would never forgive me.  MICHAEL, I am so sorry I wish there was something else I could do to comfort you other then just to say I KNOW what you are going through.  My mom has been gone now for 6 months.

Seems to get harder everyday, not easier.  I miss my mom so much, i can't take it.  she was also my best friend, i have such a large hole in my life now, I don't know how I will get over this.

When my Mom got sick in July, started helping my 85 year old dad caring for her.  in August I moved back home and quit my job in September to help full time 24 hours a day.  Now that she passed, I'm here with my Dad, taking on my Mom's role with chores, making sure Dad is ok, everything.  i'm bombarded with memories constantly.  Missing Mom is very hard.

My Condolences, Brad.  thank you for the kind words.  She was an amazing woman.  And I know that word is overused, but she really was amazing.

Michael I am sorry to hear of your mom's passing, sounds like she was a very special lady., seems she had a good heart that she passed onto you. It's been just about 5 weeks since my mom passed and i find it hard everyday just to go ahead with my life, but i know i have to move on, that's exactly what she would tell me.

My Mom in Mexico, age 14

So my Mom's funeral was on Thursday Oct 4, and today Saturday I am so incredibly sad, i can barely take it.  My mother was an amazing person and an inspiration to so many.  She was born in San Gabriel, Ca in 1931, and lived with foster parents for her early years, visiting with her mom when she could. At 9 years old her mom snatched her from the family and drove her to Mexico City, when she lived in a very small town.  She would tell me about all about it. It was in Mexico, in Chilpanchingo, that at 11 years old she contracted polio.  This was 1942. The village witch doctors tried everything, even a paste made from Hemp and Marijuana to help her legs.  Her mother brought her back to Los Angeles where doctors fused her right knee together and it would never bend again.  She went to live with her father, who taught my mother to do everything for herself.  He was a sailor in the Coast Guard and as hard as nails.  My mother grew up and never once complained about her disability.  I never considered her handicapped or disabled because she did everything and even more than a person with two good legs.  And never complained and only mentioned her polio to ENCOURAGE me to do more.  When I was lazy she would remind me if She could do something, why couldn't I do it, with two good legs.  She touched so many people in her life, inspired so many, that my amazement is still growing.  Love you Mom
