I also lost my beautiful mum to bone and lung cancer March 2019, mum became ill so sudden and stayed strong but it was not long before she grew her wings and learned to fly, those few weeks were so sudden and unknown,  I only ever had my mum in my life and I understand every comment I have read on this wonderful site, I guess I was more than lucky to have my mum in my life for those 45 years, it was my birthday in December and mum gave me a hand made card with two verses she had penned herself, I treasure my last birthday card , I cry most days as I'm finding the void to much, my mum was my world and still is, I talk to mum most nights and still try to understand why after the beautiful loving person mum was? I now walk this world alone when I do manage to leave my home which isn't often, I have brothers and a sister but that connection has never really been there, I'm lost now, I'm trying to continue but it's to much, I never thought this day would be so soon, we had great times and our own ways of creating fun and laughs, I love my mum so much I truly do, my partner didn't understand the hurt I felt and unfortunately I did end the relationship so life has become somewhat lonely without him but mum said at the time I had made the correct choice she always knew these details strangley enough ha ha, my heart goes out to all the comments on this site I've read such beautiful words,  kindness and caring , my tears became rivers but I continue to pull myself through each day still broken but I try so hard, I really miss my mum truly I do, my heart goes out to all of you and I wish you much love and kind thoughts. Thank-you for reading my words it helps me a lot as I also type these words so mum can read them an always be aware I'm still here for her and not a day goes by were I don't talk and tell her I love her deeply. Will say goodnight and God bless for now. Love you mum. Xxx

I also lost my Mum on 1 March and I miss her every day. I was extremely close to her and can't get the image of her in those final weeks out of my head. She kept saying I just want to get better which breaks my heart as we all knew that wasn't possible. It's just not fair that this disease takes so many. I'm even thinking of having a spiritual reading to see if I can connect with Mum. I think this might help. Has anyone else had experience of this?

I feel for everyone on here that is going through this. I'm just so very sad and wish for one more day with my lovely mum xx

It’s been over a year since I lost my mum and I remember how it felt and your words bring back memories. Mum died suddenly of a haemorrhage so even though she was ill, we always hoped they would find a cure and there had been no terminal diagnosis so it was a hellish shock. After weeks of panic attacks and crying every day I slowly realised I was doing mum a disservice remembering her as she was ill / passed away rather than remembering the full of life formidable woman she was. 

Unfortunately it takes time and it is so unbelievably painful and still the image presents itself completely out of the blue, like yesterday in Asda and you feel like you’ve been punched all over again. But it does get easier in time. You’ll get stronger and you’ll live your life again, like she would want you to.
