Lost Without My Mom

My mom died, August 17, 2009 of an apparent heart attack from heart failure. Her doctors never told me how sick she was and so I was blown away and am heart sick and lost without her.

I just lost my mom on February 17th, Ash Wednesday.  I don't know if you could ever be "prepared" but it was kind of unexpected.  She was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer the 2nd week of September,…Continue

I lost my Mom January of this year.  She led a full life and passed at the age of 95.  Though we had her for many years it doesn't make the loss any easier.  I moved to this area to be closer to her 4 years ago and am at a total loss without her now.  My days begin and end thinking about her.  Every time I'm out in public, I wind up crying because I come in contact with an elderly person that reminds me of her.  If I'm with my sister and my Mom comes up I cry.  I try so hard to move on but my Mom is everywhere for me and in everything I say and do.  Having her longer has almost been a hardship, it's like life is unimaginable without her.  I certainly haven't gone thru all of the stages or grief because anger has never come into play.  I know my Mom is in a better place and certainly wouldn't want her here suffering but miss her terribly.  If anyone has found a book to read that has helped with their grief I'd appreciated the suggestion.

I lost my mom this year to a sudden heart attack.  And today I've just lost my grandma.  Two great matriarchs gone.  Just like that.  How ephemeral life is.  I have started this blog to express my grief: http://spiritspout.blogspot.com/

I hope anyone who reads it will know that they're not alone.  xo

Welcome to the group Patricia. I am so sorry for you loss.  My mom died Jan.10,2011.  She was my best friend. I miss her so much. As Mothers Day approaches, I am wondering how I will handle it.  First Mothers Day without my mom.  I cherish her memories and all the advice she gave me over the years.

I surely miss my mom since she passed away Christmas Day and it won't be the same without her either or Dad also...These were my adoptive parents and I will always cherish the life they gave to me.

On March 23, 2011 My father shot and killed my Mom and then committed suicide. My mother was one of my best friends. My mom, my sister, and I were always best friends from the time I was born. This sudden loss of our parents has left us in incredible pain and shock. The thought that our father hated us enough to take her from us just breaks our heart! We haven't even began to let reality settle in, but we are lost without our Mom. We both joined this site hoping to be able to talk and work through this grief with others that are hurting too

It was not supposed to be like this

In 2014 I met the most amazing man ever. We were both in our very early 20s and were looking for different things at the time. We ceased communication for roughly 6 months. During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection. Regular calls and video chats, visits while he was home on…See More
