Most of you here know my mother has been in hospital since the end of April
I have had some lovely messages of support from so many of you, so am leaving this brief message.
I have just returned home from the hospital for the last time.
Having stayed most of the day at her bed side, mum waited until she was alone. She lost her fight shortly after midnight and slipped peacefully away.
Although this was expected I have no words to describe the way I feel right now, though I feel sure so many of you who have already been through this will understand.

Forever..My heartfelt sympathy to you..I don't know you.. But we all know or will know this feeling... Love to you... Wendy X

So sorry to hear about your mum.I know exactly how you are feeling.My dad died last year and I had been with him,then left to go to a friends house for a few hours before going back again but I was called back within half an hour of leaving.I rushed to the hospital but he had died.The doctor did say that often they wait until the family have gone.Take care xx
My thoughts are with you at this most difficult time. xx
So sorry to hear your sad news. I understand just how you feel as I lost my dear mum in January 1999 and I still miss her so much and think of her every day. In fact losing her was such a shock that I think that may well be what precipitated my Fibromyalgia tho' I can't be sure. I do know that looking after her by myself and working full time did not do my health any favours and moving her about when bathing her and getting her comfortable in bed certainly aggravated my back. BUT...I would do it all over again as I loved her dearly. She was my best friend. Be very gentle with yourself and take all the time you need to grieve. I haven't been on this site for a few weeks as I have been trying to put what little energy I have into trying to clear some clutter ( my house is an absolute tip) so I hadn't picked up that your dear mum was in hospital. My heartfelt prayers are with you as you go through this difficult time. Loving, healing thoughts for you and your family. Hugs Saskia XX
Hi em. So sorry to hear of your loss..she will always be with you. It does get better, but not right now, so just go with your feelings . Lots of love and hugs. God bless
There are no words to express the sympathy that is being sent to you from so many. I don't know you but have felt the sorrow of losing a parent. I am pretty sure you will be surrounded by love from all your family and friends. Take comfort from the support
I feel so sorry for you and I understand the feelings you are going through as I lost my Mother in Dec after a long fight and she waited for me to leave before she died bless her, but my heart goes out to you and your family at this very sad time xxx
My heartfelt sympathies to you Mal. I empathise with you totally. What a very sad time for you. My mum passed in 2002 and not a day goes by that I don't think of her. I hope your wonderful memories of her will keep you going through these dark days. XXX
I am so sorry to hear this, my heart goes out to you. I lost my own mum very recently and there is such a bewildering range of emotions and thoughts about it all.
There is a Jewish proverb: God could not be everywhere so He gave us mothers. I hope that you will feel a little comforted by knowing how much love and understanding is winging it's way to you.

Know how bereft you must be feeling now Em. There is no worse feeling than the loss of your Mum. When you are really down, remember ' grieving is the price we pay for loving'.
Even though we've never met, it feels like we are all family on here. I have been through this too so understand what you're going through. Love and hugs xx
Oh dear,, I'm so very sorry to hear your devastating news, it's my worst nightmare so even tho I don't truly know how you feel I can envisage the deep pain you are feeling right now... God bless you and your mum x x x
There is no loss like that of a mother...may you be strong and remember the good times.

Hi
So very sorry to hear about your sad loss, I lost my dad 2 years ago so I know how you must feel. Time doesn't heal but it does make it a bit easier. Thinking of you at this sad time.
What awful, sad news. I'm so sorry for you, and all the others here who have had to face such a difficult time. My thoughts are with you. Look after yourself xxx
Oh dear Em, I knew things were on the downward slope , now I am sending you loads and loads of love and strength to get through this most difficult of times. I lost my father last August and am still trying to get my head round things. I also lost my mother nearly 21 years ago and like others I feel the loss of her so keenly, even though it was so long ago.
Take heart my friend, we are all here to support you, take great care of yourself and when I'm back in proper wi-fi land I will be in touch,
So sorry for your loss, you must grieve if you are able, and if you need to can always pm me as I went through this with my late father, he passed away in Nov 2012.
My condolences on the loss of your mum, I lost my mum to cancer 3 years ago, she did the same there was someone with her at all times till my oh was asked to leave the room by cleaning staff, from the time it took her to leave and him to go back in the room she had gone, I think she wanted it that way, we had expected her to go on the Tuesday when my oh and I rushed from Yorkshire to Norfolk she left on the Sunday, gentle hugs for you and your family (((((((((((((((((hugs))))))))))))))))))))))))) .

Em my sympathy goes out to you for such a big loss. it shows that you had a special love between you, and that is the most beautiful thought you must hold on to. It is so had to watch a loved one suffering, but thank God that she suffers no more, an she is now with the other wonderful angels above. You must draw on the love from those around you, an all these wonderful messages you have been sent. My prayers and a big but gentle hug.:-))))))))))) xxxx
Thank you to everyone for your kind words of support and sympathy. I have been completely overwhelmed by so many messages.
I felt so alone and empty when I left mum in the hospital yesterday morning, all these messages have meant far more than words could ever say, so I will simply say THANK YOU to each and every one of you.
Sending you healing thoughts... I lost my own mum just over 6 years now so suddenly.... I know how much it hurts so I am sending my love and a virtual (((hug)))
Very sad to hear of your loss. I found it devastating leaving the hospital for the last time, I lay with my mum for hours and she fell asleep in my arms. That was over six years ago now, but I know and feel she is always with me. My thoughts are with you, please take care of yourself.
