Hi Kisha,
Thank you for your kind words - I can sympathize with what you went through. I know what you mean about your unborn baby being the only thing that keeps you going. My husband and family have been great, however I think my unborn son is the only reason I still got up in the morning and forced myself to eat.
Thank you again for your kindness. It's comforting to know there are other women who have been in this situation. I hope you get through these next few months as best as you can.
Today was my Mom's birthday...she would have been 87 years old. Made a visit to the cemetary this morning to place some flowers on her grave. Happy Birthday Mom, wherever your spirit may be.
Hi Elissa, I am so sorry for your loss. Mine was similar. My mom passed away March 2012. I was having lunch with her and my sister on Monday and on Thursday she was diagnosed with brain cancer and did not know our names and was given 2-3 weeks to live. She passed away 21 days later. It saddens me because by the time they diagnosed her, she was not in her right mind and I could not talk to her about what was going on and really know if she knew what was happening. I did the best I could to make sure her last days were filled with love and that I talked to her as if she understood everything I said. I won't lie, losing your mom IS one of the worst things in the world, but the pain does ease. I don't know if the pain ever FULLY goes away, but it does hurt less with time. I KNOW I am going to see my mom again and she is ever present, but she wasn't for the first year. Suddenly these last 2 and half months she has been so near and not just to me, but to my sister and my best friend. Just come here and talk, it was my lifesaver right after my mom passed.
My condolences to everyone. I lost my mom in Sept 2012 and it is still very hard. lots of sadness.
God Bless eveyone.
Maddy, I've had a few good days surrounded by bad days. I read in a grief book that it's normal. We can only take so much pain and grief. Eventually, our hearts and minds will make us have a relatively good day to give us a break from the anguish. I try to enjoy my good days, but I often find that the days after are really bad. I hope the day brightens for you a bit.
Today is a bad day. Yesterday I felt capable and was able to focus. Today I feel like I am on the verge of tears at any moment. I think it's because I am getting closer to my due date and as I approach the birth of my first child, the absence of my mother is even more painful. Today is a bad day.
