well my mum is finally at peace now, she passed away at 3.15pm today 3 weeks after been diagnosed with lung cancer, I have been caring for her since that time, I can't the feeling I have at the moment other than Emptiness.
We knew that this time wasn't far away, but I'm sure that you didn't expect it to come so soon. I extend my sincere sympathy on your loss. Everything has happened so quickly for her since her diagnosis, that you must all be reeling at the speed of things.
Emptiness is a good description of how you feel. You will probably continue to feel like this until you have held her funeral.You will find that you remain on auto-pilot while you notify people and make arrangements.
Remember that we are still here for you for as long as you need us.
I am thinking of and praying for your family at this difficult time.
Just want to send you a big hug ... even when you know it's coming , it still hurts so bad .. I'm sure she would feel so proud of you for the help you gave her .. I felt when my mum died suddenly , it seemed I was in a dream (nightmare) where every morning I woke up , hoping the phone would ring and she would still be here ...
i found the first year the hardest as always thinking 'this time last year' but my friend said to me that I had been blessed to have such a wonderful mum, as hers never wanted her , and she'll never know what it's like having that closeness... but no words stop the pain but it may ease it a little ... over the years I have felt her around esp when I got diagnosed with breast cancer ...
so hold on and take care of your heart ️ big hug Chrisie x
