Lost my mum to cancer

Hi everyone, On April 13th 2020 my mum sadly passed away from breast cancer, she was only 50 and i feel completely broken. I have good days and bad days and i miss her a lot. I'm 17 and It's just me and my dad in the house, When she passed I couldn't come home for 2 nights and stayed at my brothers, I couldn't bare to come home. My mum was my best friend and i regret not spending enough time with her. I have dreams that she's still here but bad dreams, it's like my dream self knows that my mum passed so it's more like a nightmare. most mornings i wake up thinking that my mums death was a nightmare and get that nice relief for 2 seconds before reality hits me. My mum was always the person i could truly count on and now that she's not here i feel so lost. My mum always worried about me and how i'd be if she passed, but if i'm like her i'll remain strong, It's just so hard because she wanted to do so many things and see so many things. I just don't know what to do from now on and i'm just needing a bit of help. 

Thank you for taking the time to read this :) Take care

    Hi

    reading through these posts,we can all see ourselves. The pain we feel the loss we share , the endless despair. Is there some comfort in that,that we all feel the sMe. No one can ever prepare us for the loss of our mums, until it happens we don't want to accept it even might. I lost my wonderful mum in April to bowel cancer. It rings true you wake up and as soon as you do it all starts realing away. It's horrid,all I can add is hang on in there. We don't know what else is ahead for our lives,so having had our mums in the first place was a blessing. Be proud of who you are, you are because she was, no one will ever change that. Take care everyone,dig deep. Xxxxx
