Hi,

I just want to say I'm so sorry for your loss. From the bottom of my heart I understand this pain and numbness. I lost my mum the day before to cancer. Although her battle was longer it made it no easier. Every emotion, every feeling you've described I see in myself. I've lost my best friend, my safety and comfort, my home. And I'm so scared of the world. 
I feel so empty and just craving emotion yet im fearing the day reality hits and grief truely sets in. I don't really know what im saying

i know im not much help but maybe there is some comfort in knowing that we're not alone on this journey. We don't know each other and there's probably many more like us, heartbroken and missing our mums, but we are strong people, they'd want us to be.  I just want to tell you I understand you, our paths will look different, grief hits us in different stages at different times but never will it be easy. Take care of yourself, take time out. Focus on yourself and do what you need to do. Make memories for them but most importantly for you. 
If ever you do find a way to help and ease the pain or be able to understand it more, I would love to hear it.

best wishes to you, I hope you find some comfort somewhere within this process

My heart aches. My beautiful mom passed away in May. I can't breathe, function or speak. I can't believe that I will never see her again.

My beautiful mom. She was diagnosed with terminal cancer in December. She suffered so much pain. It was so painful to see. I would have given anything for it to have been me x The only thing keeping me going is that she is not suffering and I know she is looking down on me saying I love you x She is with me, I can feel her around me. I speak too her all the time. 

I feel like I'm looking down on myself, watching myself coping, day to day x

Hi Cooksot,

I just wanted to send a reply to welcome you to the forum and to send condolences for your loss. You must have had an unbelievably tough few months.

You've posted on a supportive thread here so I'm sure you'll receive further replies soon. You can always create a new discussion on the forum anytime, should you wish to. I hope the forum can offer some support to you, even if it's just a case of writing things down and reaching out to others.

Try to take things a day at a time and I hope that things gradually begin to feel more manageable.

Wishing you all the best,

Ben
