So sorry for your loss. Feeling this way is common and I'm sorry you are experiencing this. xo

I'm so very sorry for your loss. I lost my mother two month's ago, the pain is so very great. I lost my son as well, and there's always the what if I would have done this or that. I'm sure your mother loved you, and doesn't want you to feel this way. I try and remind myself everyday that it will get easier with time. The loss of my son has been easier with time, and I know the loss of my mother will be the same. Cry, love, remember the wonderful things, but please don't let guilt cause you more pain. Big hugs❤ I will be praying for you and your family.

When my brother died about a year ago my world crashed ever since then im not myself anymore. I have had alot to go through in my marriage of 10 years and when i got that dreadful call i also could no longer hold it together. I still struggle with emotions daily. I struggle with my marriage i even went of the railings :(. I feel like my life is so messed up and i feel so lost.

I’m so sorry to read this 😞. You say you weren’t there for her - what do you mean by that? Did you not have a good relationship or were you physically unable to be there?

When I was 23, my dad died of cancer just two days before my wedding. He and my mum lived in Northern Ireland at that time, because of his job. But we’re all from Scotland, so our wedding was in Glasgow. I had to leave my dad at the hospital, knowing he wouldn’t make my wedding, but I was NOT prepared to get a call to say he had died.

I beat myself up about that for years and it just wasn’t worth it. I had no reason to believe he would die as we had been told he just needed help for an infection.

There is no correct way to grieve...it’s all very personal to each person and all very dependent on the relationship. Xx
