Missing my daughter

Hi, My beautiful daughter died 3 years and 10 months ago and some days it is so difficult as I miss her so so much. It seems strange that life all around you carries on when you feel so low. I try to live the best life I can without her because that is what she wanted but somedays it is so hard. I think about her most of the time during the long days, months and years since she died.and it is always worse of a nightime when unable to sleep because of memories of her suffering with glioblastoma. I don’t really know why I am writing this on here but hey ho....

  • Hello mum76,

    I'm sorry for your loss and the pain you're experiencing. Grief is a deeply personal journey, and it's natural to have difficult days when the absence of your daughter feels overwhelming. The contrast between your internal struggles and the seemingly unaffected world around you can intensify those feelings.

    It's admirable that you're trying to honor your daughter's wishes by living the best life you can. Remember that grief takes time, and healing is a gradual process. It's okay to have hard days and to allow yourself to feel the emotions that come with them.

    Seeking support from others who have experienced similar losses can be comforting and I hope that you'll continue to find that among us.

    Sending you strength and comfort as you navigate these feelings.

    All the best,
