I'm so sorry to hear of your hard loss. It is incredibly hard in the early months to think of life without our loved ones.
Just take each day as it comes. Celebrate all the great memories and remember, she is with you still, watching you, loving you. It will get easier. The days will feel brighter and the fun of life will creep back and your Mam will be so happy when you start to smile again 💖
Hi Mustangsally1 Welcome to our friendly Community.
I'm so sorry for the loss of your dear Mam.
Mums are so very special aren't they? they are there in the centre of life and our world and especially our heart., which is the one place she will remain.
It's very early days for you and your emotions are raw, it will take time and during this period, if others around you offer support, please take it, if only to have someone around for a short while, it will help to get you through,
Of course there are also times you'll just want to be alone with your thoughts and that is as it should be.
You may want to try making a memory box, fill it with things that remind you of your Mam, photos, jewellery, birthday cards, things that me a great deal to you. I keep mine under my bed and bring it out at times when I want to reflect on my loved one and all they meant to me, and I treasure those moments too.
So sorry to hear of your loss, it's hard to pick up the pieces after losing someone who was so special to us. Is there any way that you can honor her life and memories in a special way? Today is the day 12 years ago that my oldest sister passed away in her sleep, she was half way around the world living in England. Our parents planted a special tree, a weeping willow, in her honor so that each time they look out their front window they remember her and how special she was to each of us. Perhaps you could begin writing in a journal all of the thoughts and special things about her that you don't want to forget. It's a way of keeping your special relationship alive in your words and memories. Take each day one step at a time. Deep breath... it's gonna be okay.
Thank you for your kind wordsI started writing a journal different things about herI am going to do a memory box also
She was my world and she always said if I go you have to keep your head and carry on living your life, and I’m trying so hard every day,grief really is a battle💕💕💐
I'm so sorry you have lost your precious mam.I love the photo ,I keep a photo of my smiling mum on the fireplace.She loved fresh flowers so I put a little vase of flowers next to it.Thinking of you x
Welcome to the community. Sorry for your loss. There are no magic words (or wands) to take away the pain. I found I just have to stand still and hurt. I don’t do that well. I’m a runner who wants to escape from pain and problems. But walking through the grief is my only option. If I ran, the emotions would just bite me in the ass later on. I lost my daughter in January. Send me a private message if you’d like.
