Hi there 

I lost my mum in September 2018 and my story is almost the exact same as yours. 

I'm not sure how old you are, not that it matters but the hospise helped me cope with all the trauma. 

Greif consumes your life, but your life is always able to grow. So if you think of it like this, greif never changes, but your life will grow around it. Take time to feel, but when you're ready, jump back into it. 

I'd also recommend writing down every happy memory you have because one day they'll help you out. I wish I did it sooner rather than later.

I'm sorry for your loss, just remember, when someone falls to cancer, the cancer dies too. It's not a loss its a draw. Your mum was strong and I know she will have passed that strength down to you!!! 

Hugs to you I do understand. I am angry at the world also people don't understand how a close relationship can actually 'be' your whole world.  Other people I just look at with no feeling or connection at the moment, talking about pointless things, I can't relate.  I too am just existing at the moment, I go home and watch YouTube, barely speak to anyone out loud.  I want it to be this way, I'm not faking anything at the moment.  

Hi there,

               Let me start with sending you lots of love and strength. I too lost my Mum in October and feel exactly like you. I just can't comprehend it. My mum didn't have cancer she went to work and had a massive heart attack and didn't come home. I'm still living in a state of shock I think and the more days that pass the worse I feel knowing I'll never see her again and seeing my dad struggle on without her is a pain like no other. At least I have my 2 boys to keep my occupied but when I'm on my own that's when the tears start its awful. I really hope the saying is true that it gets easier because I can't see how. Lots of love sweetheart and RIP to your beautiful Mum x

Hi, 

Thank you very much! It definetly helps to talk to someone who has been through somthing similar. At first I was only remebering memories of when she was in the hospice really unwell but recently some good memories have been coming back and thankfully I have lots of pictures of her. Its getting hard now with Christmas coming soon so just trying to get throught this season

Hi 

So sorry for your loss. Nothing really prepares you for the loss of your mother, especially when its so sudden! Thanks for reaching out. It definetly helps to talk to someone who has been through something similar as I dont think people really understand what grief feels like on a daily basis x
