Yesterday has got to have been the worse day. We knew it was coming, mum was restless and feeling so unwell. She pushed us away until just before she left this world. She only wanted my dad to be around when she left. I missed her by a maybe 30 minutes. But I spoke to her in the morning, we told each other we loved each other. But the pain in my heart it’s overwhelming, I feel so empty. My mum, my mum is gone.
Oh Lozcat, I’m so, so sorry you’ve lost your mum😢. I can feel your heartache and can understand your pain, having lost my beautiful mum almost 2 years ago. Sending you lots of prayers and love 🙏💕. Linda G
Does it get easier Linda? All I do is cry, I wouldn’t want her to be in this world the way she was. But gosh I didn’t want to imagine it without her either. She was only 54. I am 29, all I wanted was for her to see my babies and live this life to her fullest. Cancer stole that from her, it’s just so unfair that she had to suffer. It stole her smile and cheekiness. But yesterday I swear I felt her with me, I felt her in my heart - a warmth. I know she will be with me always.
Hi Lozcat, you’re so young and your mum was so young. Such a terrible loss for you. I’m a lot older and so was mum when she died but I still feel like a little kid who just wants her mum😢. I don’t cry as much anymore but the space she had in my heart just aches for her. Be kind to yourself and just take all the time you need to move through the grief. Love and prayers to you 🙏💕 Linda
