Comment by Marie N on May 9, 2013 at 8:19pm I lost my Mom on 3/19/13...it was very sudden and totally unexpected. My life will never be the same. I miss her so very much. I feel like part of me died with her. I'm not looking forward to Sunday. I just wish things could be different. I just feel so overwhelmed and my mind races constantly. I'm always thinking about her. Some days its just so much to deal with. I just want to cry.

Comment by Julia A. on April 16, 2013 at 9:18am My mother passed away in Feb. 2012 at the age of 42. Even though it has already been a year, it still feels like it just happened and I still think about her every day. Nobody really understands what I'm going through and my friends were so unsupportive that I just got rid of them. I had no other family accept for her accept my unstable aunt who wouldn't even pay for a funeral or write an obituary even though she has three cars, two houses, and several hundred acres of land. She made sure that she got every last thing that belonged to my mother though. My mother was my only family and I have been so lost in life without her. This is a cold cold world and nobody actually cares about anybody and I'm so scared because I know nobody is ever going to love me like she did ever again. I have a hard time finding people that care about me at all because I'm socially awkward and I'm just so scared without her.

Comment by Gail on February 4, 2013 at 9:34pm I can so relate to everyone on this site.My Mom died Dec 20 2011.I sat by her side watching her slip away for nine days.Iwas lucky enough to be able to say everything I wanted to say before she lost conciousness.Iwanted to scream and cry for her not to go.But my sisters would have killed me and it wold have been harder for her.Her death was the worst thing that has ever happened to me.There isn't a day that goes by I don't think of her.Ifeel she is around me still.And the only thing that keeps me going is I know I will see her in heaven
Comment by Sue Waxman on February 4, 2013 at 11:30am Dear Melissa,
I am so sad for your loss. How awful. This site is a great source of ssupport. My mom passed June 26, 2013. It is still difficult every day. Take one hour at a time. Sue
Comment by Melisa C on February 3, 2013 at 1:20pm It's been 19 days since she's gone. She underwent surgery for her knee, it wasn't supposed to be that big of a deal. But one of the medications they gave her was what killed her (teamed with a condition we didn't know she had). This was 12 days after the surgery. I didn't know she was so ill. She had seen her doctor the day before! I never once imagined she could die. I didn't tell her how much I loved her and how proud I was of her for bringing me up on her own. I was on the other room when she passed away... I feel like I've been struck and can't understand what's going on and what I'm going to do with myself from now on. She was my life, my home.
I also feel like our life together was a million years ago and can't remember her voice or gestures. I wish I had been a better daughter, not acting as if I was going to have her forever. I wish I hadn't taken her health for granted, the day after she passed I started remembering things and thought ''How didn't I realize she was seriously ill and called the ambulance before??''.
I'm depressed and can remember mostly the sad things about her life. She didn't have it easy... I think of these things and my heart breaks. I can't believe how I felt so miserable before, compared with what I'm going through now, our life before was heaven.
I'd like to think I'm going to see her some day, but maybe it's just wishful thinking? I have virtually no one that understands me like her and loves me like her, or someone with a sense of humor like hers!
Comment by Betsy Levin on December 25, 2012 at 9:49pm I too am so lost without my mom. she died sept 13, 2008. She was my best friend. We were a team. Everyday I miss her so but i am coping the best i can. I think the hardest thing is not having her here to talk to and share things with. She is also not seeing my daughter grow up and she meant everything to her. I have friend but no one close like I was with my mom. some days are better than other but today is difficult maybe because of the holidays. this was her favorite time of year. I wish i could just forget the holidays but i cant because of my daughter so i am pretending to enjoy it eventhough inside my heart is breaking. when is it going to get easier
Comment by Kisha on October 27, 2012 at 1:39am Hi Jane't, I am sorry for your loss. My mom passed away July 22, 2012 suddenly as well. I later found out that she had pneumonia that had gotten into her blood stream and began to shut down her organs. She had just left visiting my daughter and I in California and had to be admitted to the critical care unit when she got home. She died the next day. I didn't make it there in time. I was 32 weeks pregnant. I continuously question myself with "what if's". I wish I had insisted that she go to the emergency room while she was visiting me.
I also feel that my mom was taken too soon. It's so unfair and I feel that God got it wrong. She didn't even get to meet my son. I want her back so badly. It kills me that I have to go on in this world without her. I'm so heartbroken.
