Hi Jolley,

So sorry for your loss. 

I have just lost my Mum and feel exactly the same.  Theres nothing wrong with feeling numb. I have been questioning myself these past 3 wks as I lost my Mum on the 25th May 2019. I feel numb.. I feel I should be crying more although I do cry everyday... mostly in a morning or when I m in bed. I thought I would lose the plot when my Mum would leave us all. Infact I'm the opposite.  You see we are given an inner strength to cope with our grief. We all deal with loss in our own way.  Dont be too hard on yourself xx

Hi I do hope that things have got a bit better for you, I think personally it helps to remember it's ok to not feel ok, your mum was your world, she taught you to love and can never be replaced, ride with it Hun it's a painful journey. All the very best 

Wise words we all cope in different ways, take care 

I too have lost my mum to terminal Breast Cancer and she was only 69 when she died on the 7th April 2019 which is 4 days after my birthday so was quite cruel on me.

I think about Mum every day and sometimes I can not help but cry. I also do have my anxiety problems but have family and friends to support me.

Remember to stay strong and its useful to talk to someone even counselling helps when you feel down.

Take good care of yourself.

Hiya axxx1,

I'm so very sorry to hear of your loss at such a very young age.

It's so hard to deal with and yes life is very cruel at times. I feel like there is a whole in me now that will never be filled.

It's been 2 years to the day that my mum was diagnosed and I still can't believe it. 

Very wise words about carrying on and them wanting that for us. They will always be with us in our hearts and memories.

Hiya Sasha45,

I'm so very sorry to hear about the passing of your mum. 

Thank you for your kind words. I completely agree about the inner strength, which I believe in a way has come from my mum.

I must admit I still can't believe it and it's been 2 years today that she was diagnosed. 

I know everyone believes different things, but i take comfort in thinking that her spirit is watching over me and your's to you.

Take care xxx

Hiya babyjoel,

Thank you for your kind words.

I still have good and bad days, but like you say it's ok not to be ok at times.

It's 2 years today she was diagnosed and it still doesn't feel real like I'm in a dream

She'll always be with me in my heart and through memories.

Take care xxx

Hiya Lightofheaven00.

I am so very sorry for your loss and at a young age.

I'm glad you have a supportive family around when you need it as you are bound to think of her everyday and be sad. That won't change as it's been almost 2 years since she died and 2 years today she was diagnosed and I still think of her every day. Hopefully with time the memories will make you smile too.

I like to think she's still with me and her spirit is watching over us, but I know people believe different things.

I have thought of counselling as my sister has seen someone, but I keep putting it off. Might have a re think.

Take care xxx

Hiya m3l4nie1982,

I'm so very sorry to hear of your loss and at such a young age. 

Everyone is different in the way they grieve and I have to admit I feel pretty much the same as I did mostly numb. I have good and bad days. 

It's 2 years today since she was diagnosed and it still doesn't feel real.

There is no time limit to grieving. Your mum was a massive part of your life and you are always going to think of her and miss her. Hopefully with time your memories will make you smile.
