Miss my mum

Letter to my beloved mum...

I don't like measuring the passage of time, in fact, I resent it! But today, I cant ignore it, because its 4th March 2022 and that marks exactly 5yrs without you.

5yrs today and I still think about you every day. Your strength,Your poise,Your graciousness. Your love unconditionally, love for your family and your grandsons (best nan in the world)

Today feels like its a big one! It feels like I should be over it and moved on with my life...so wrong 

Multiple people have told me this! This is moment of closure and grief, but that's not possible!

Your death has taught me as much as your time on earth did, about you, about life, about family.

There is no denying how hard its been without you, I was an adult child when you became an angel mum. I always expected we'd have more time, you'd be here with us all.

I feel like its me against the world at times. I miss you more than words and wish you were still standing in my corner.

I feel an obligation to be the best mum to my boys because you were the best mum! It would be selfish not to pass on the love and lessons ive learnt from you mum.

I see you in my dreams, I'll see you nowhere, I'll see you everywhere. Until then I'll always carry you in my heart  

  • Sorry for the loss of your mum i am sure she would be very proud of you sending my thoughts and a virtual hug  

  • sorry for your loss. Lots of us here if you need a chat xx

  • Today is 10 years since my Dad passed away from cancer and just over 2 months since I lost my beautiful Mum to the same dreaded disease.

    My mum died within a matter of weeks and the whole thing has left me so shocked I don't know how to function. She was my rock and my absolute world. We were a team and now I feel completely lost, in a big wide world all alone. I saw her every day and I now have no routine; nowhere to go and I feel like every day is a struggle just to get through.

    The only thing I was hoping for was for time to pass to see if it eventually healed the pain but reading your post makes me realise that when you lose someone as precious as your mum time doesn't really do much to help. 

    I always knew I'd be devastated if anything happened to her but I was never prepared for this whole world of pain and the desperate loneliness I feel. I have great friends and a great partner but there is nobody that can ever love me like she did or who I love the same. 
     

    I would love to think there's something after this life because I have been left questioning what this one is all about.

     

  • Thank you for your msg and support  

     

  • Aww big hugs to you on your dads 10th anniversary, I feel your pain and heart ache, especially also losing your mum, just two months ago. Grief is so hard as we continue to cope in world without our loved ones.

     

    Mums love us unconditionally and I don't think any child will get over losing a parent. Im an only child and my mum was my best friend, I miss my mum so much, as we saw each other every day,  miss my phone calls.

    I was in work last week, but I felt so alone, even though the office was busy.. I just wanted to talk to my mum.

     

    I thought over time it would get easier but it dosent!!

    I will always miss my mum, even though I have partner, kids and friends its still so hard  even  as after 5 years is still so hard, no denying ive change as a person as I have lost my biggest supporter in my life  the one person I could rely on,. I feeling alone at times without my mum.

     

    My heart goes out to you so sorry for your loss.  If you ever need a friend to chat, I'm hear.

    Big hugs take care xxx
