Oh Shellie, my heart goes out to you. I lost my Mom Feb. 24, 2016 so I am coming up on one year. I can't imagine the hurt of losing a Mom could be any worse than what I've experienced but I guess there are circumstances where it certainly could. My Mom and I were not arguing at all and I still felt guilty for a long time. I was her Medical Power of Attorney and had to make a lot of decisions when she got really sick in the hospital. I will always second guess those decisions but ultimately I now realize that her death was not my fault and i could not have prevented it. No more than you could have prevented your mom's death. There is no way you could have known what was going to happen. When God call us home, he calls us home. Try to focus on all of the wonderful memories you have with your Mom. Coming to this site was a great help for me. I don't feel like I'm the only person going through grief. I have learned from many of the comments here and they help me so much. I hope they will help you also. The book that David mentioned below was recommended to me by a grief counselor that I saw (only once). Recognizing the stages of grief has been helpful to me also. It helps to put things into perspective. May God bless you and give you peace and comfort and understanding. Be easy on yourself, especially now.
Shellie, I agree, my dad was ill and when he passed I knew that would be what would happen, my mom, died suddenly and unexpectedly from cardiac arrest, that is what I am struggling with.
She was not sick, I spoke to her thirty minutes before she died and she sounded like herself.
Everyday is painful for me.
So sorry Shellie
