I am so sorry, Dawn. I know that it seems impossible that they won't be there anymore. It's normal to have feelings of anger or to always think "what if...", but that doesn't make it any easier. I lost my Mom on the 16th of June, so I am new to all of this as well. Xx

My mom died on June 2nd after an 8 month battle with lung cancer. I miss her so much. Our relationship was complicated but in the end we said everything we needed to and I know that she knew how much I loved her. In some ways I am at peace with her death because I knew there was realistically no other outcome. A part of me is so angry at her because she died of lung cancer after smoking for 50+ years. I can't remember a time I wasn't trying to get her to quit. It's just such a waste and as much as I miss her, I feel like she didn't care about me enough to stop smoking. She continued to smoke until just a few weeks before her death. She was only 69 years old. I understand addiction. She had almost 40 years of sobriety from alcohol and prescription drugs but essentially died from her addiction to tobacco. It all just feels so messed up. I love her, I miss her and I can't believe I will never be able to pick up the phone and call her. I just miss my mom so much.

Well maybe not actually but work on your bond all the time and it might be still there in another form ?

Accept that we will never be the same..also that the world and the city you live in will never be the same in a sense.

Yes Tans as my math professor said, nothing stops us from thinking of the parent 24x7.  Yes never the same and while every day is not a grind, its a strange feeling as I walk through the streets and navigate my way through the week.  Keep thinking as much as you can and also try to make some new contacts, on this site and elsewhere.  Its just not going to be the same and that is the only thing I know.  Learning.  Surviving.

Even 4.5 years later I'm realising that I still haven't worked through mom's death. It's been affecting my work and I have to get help. Like Danny says we will never be the same. But just trying to get through every day and think of her as much as I can. Miss you mom

Its tough as ever and the key is to understand that I will never be the same.  Even years from now the pain is there but as Tans said a few months ago, at least some of the time I try to think of the infinite talks and conversation from the time I was born.  The infinite numbers between 0 and 1.

Nacy Dynes,

I understand about your not being able to listen to music. My mother passed almost 2.5 years ago and was a librarian. I still cannot pick up and finish a book. We were reading books by the pound after she retired at age 77. She passed 3 weeks before her 86th birthday. I still miss her every day. I'm sorry for all of us in the group. There is nothing like a mothers love. I plan to gather up all of her books and transform her room at our house into a tribute library. Hopefully after that I can go in there and have peace. I still cannot go in there with out crying. There is much for me to do since she left me in charge but there are still days I just can't get myself to pack up any of her stuff.

Sending hugs to you, Kim! I know I can't say anything that will help. I can only tell you that I often have felt the way you have described. Some days are more difficult than others. I am with you in prayer. I wish so much that we could have our moms back, happy and healthy. I talk to my mom all the time. It seems to help. I feel like she is here with me, watching over me. Your mom is also watching over you.
I'm so sorry that you lost your dear, sweet mother!!!

Assumptions

An assumption is an unexamined belief: what is thought to be true without ever really realizing that we think in that way. For better or worse, understanding starts with entertaining the idea that something is true.  Truly profound thoughts generally come to light from the relaxation of these (flawed) assumptions.  This is where I find myself today...Perhaps, one of the more significant drivers to pushing down the loss and grief at the time of the accident, ignoring it and mindlessly walking…See More

Sibling Loss

This group is for anyone that has lost a brother or sister. Sibling loss is often minimized and people don't realize how devastating losing a sibling can be. I lost my older sister and my life will never be the same. She was my only sibling, I looked up to her, I went to her for everything. I lost my past, present and future. It is traumatic.See More

Triggers Continue to Surface

Late February is a challenging time of year for me.  Jen’s birthday is the 23rd and serves as an annual reminder of all of the potential that was lost…Her’s (mainly), mine, the world’s honestly.  This year she would be 52…It is increasingly hard to imagine, through all of the iterations possible, what she could have become, what was to be her (significant) impact on the world.That being said, things, emotions, have largely settled down since I committed a potential version of what could have…See More
