feeling heartbroken

hi all, my mum passed away quickly with lung cancer on the 26th Feb 2016, a month after diagnosis. I am beyond devastated as she was more than my mum we were best friends. I don't feel I can talk to my husband or dad or brother as they weren't as close. Mum and I were so alike. It doesn't feel real in some way, if that makes sense. I've had so many feelings and think I'm numb today. It's just so awful!

  • Hi there, I'm really sorry to see you lost your mum suddenly. I lost my dad to lung cancer 3 days after he was diagnosed. It's very hard to digest what happened and you have to deal with so much in a short space of time. I'm sure your family are hurting just as much as you but being male they tend to show it differently. I've found that my mum is the only one who truly understands how I feel and I know she feels the same too. Your dad is probably trying to be the strong one for you, he had a tough job and must be heart broken. Sending you some hugs x
