Signs from a loved one?

In 2020, my foster carer passed from her fight with cancer after I moved back in with my mum. I quickly after had a lot going on and I never dealt with my grief until recently. I wasn't told about her passing until after the funeral so I never knew the date that it happened on.

However, recently I've been thinking about her a lot and I decided to search for her funeral notice so that I could find the date of her passing. I looked for it on 14th February 2022, to find that she had died exactly 2 years to that day. What does this mean?

  • Hello ldckay and welcome to Cancer Chat.

    I'm sorry to hear that your foster carer passed away from cancer two years ago.

    While I can't tell you whether learning that your foster carer passed away exactly two years ago is a sign from her, I want to point out that we have many threads here on the subject, one that comes to mind is Signs from loved ones who passed. I thought I might share it so that you know you're not alone.

    The other thing I wanted to mention, as you said you haven't dealt with your grief until recently, is a page from our website that addresses coping with grief, which might be of some help as you go along.

    I hope reading these bring you some comfort, ldckay.

    Wishing you all the best,
