I miss my mum so much. When will it get easier?

I lost my beautiful Mum to stomach cancer just over a month ago. The pain just keeps getting worse and I miss her more everyday and I can't believe that I'm never going to see her ever again. I literally can't bare it.

This will also be my first Christmas I've not spent with her and I'm dreading it, as is the rest of my family.

When will things get easier?

    Hi Lucy,

    I'm very sorry to hear of your moms passing. I lost mine in May and for me it has taken a long time just to even sink in, it feels unreal. Even now it's like she is still here and not really gone. This will also be my first christmas without my mom. Last christmas she was in hospital but at least I could go see her, speak to her and laugh with her etc, she was even getting "better" during that time and due to come home.

    I don't think you will ever get "over" it nor is there is any set time for things to get easier. Although I'm sure (and hope) in time you will learn to live with it better and remembering the good times will come easier. Your mom would want you to be happy in life because she loved you.

    I will keep you in my thoughts...

    God Bless x
