Sheryl... 3 months is so soon in--of course you're still grieving--duh!!  It's barely been a season...  You and your family will be in my thoughts.  Do have a good birthday considering the circumstances.  At least we're able to have birthdays (even if we take them for granted sometimes!)!

Aww, Valerie.  I'm so sorry to hear this :'(.  God bless you and your family.  I just get so angry when I hear about how hospitals/MDs "fall down on the job."  They get up and get to live while we and our loved ones are subjected to their completely life-altering errors (in diagnosis, dispensing of medicine--everything).  Regardless, I hope that you and your mom had some comfort those last few days (as she took care of you).  I had a similar situation with my mom toward the end, and I always wonder what could have been done differently.  The love for one's mom is like no other, that's for sure.  Not even close...

My mom went to the hospital last january for what she thought was the flu, and having trouble breathing. Then in july she had a bowel blockage, and after the surgery, they werent giving her inhaler, and i had to tell them she uses it every 4 hours at home, and they did a chest x ray and the found a  4.6 mass on her left lung, then august at the lung surgeon she showed us two images of her lung one from january 4th 2015, and one from july 2015, she said they didnt look much different, my mom and i are were shocked, that nobody ever told us of the image from january, in january it was a 1.3 nodule, in july a large mass to close to her heart to operate, and refered to hospice, then the end of september i caught a virus, and my mom was fine, she was taking care of me, then 3 days later she got it and she died a week later after hospice overdosed her on morphine not for pain but for breathing.

Oh Cheryl, Happy Birthday, and i  am so sorry for what your going through. I have been reading that sometimes when we really just start to really grieve when the reality sets in, that others are already moving on and think we should be doing so too. Well nobody can tell us how to feel, or how long we should grieve. A new friend said the grieving never really gets better. So thank god we have this place to come and grieve. I cant believe my mom died, and that i am now alone in this world, and the pain of missing her right now is to much. I am praying for us all.

I am so sorry Margie, i know this sadness when i brought my moms ashes home i sat them in her chair in her room where she always sat sewing her quilts, and couldnt believe either my moms body was in that box. I feel i am never going to enjoy life again either. My mom went 2 days after yours, i am still in disbelief. I am sending you a hug, i know this pain.

Mom died on 10-8-15.  She wanted to be cremated so that was exactly what I did.  My brother had the ashes since October 15.   I am from Texas and flew to Florida during my Thanksgiving break to get mom ashes   I am so sad.  It is hard to believe that my mom's body is in a little box.  I opened the box, touched the ashes and started crying.  I am still crying while writing.  I feel so sad.  I love her so much.  I miss her so much.  It is hard to come to Florida and just have her ashes and not been able to see her, to talk with her, to touch her hair, to cut her finger nails, to brush her hair, to take her to the restaurant, to the doctor, to the beauty salon, to see her dancing, to see her smiling.   I will never be able to enjoy life again. I just feel empty without my mom.
