Natalie, I think your mom calling you in your dream was her way of reaching out to you to let you know that she is okay. I know it was very difficult to wake up and she wasn't there but I truly believe she is still there with you and she was trying to reach out to you. Perhaps it might help, even if just a little bit, if you tried to look at it this way. I know it is very hard as I know I struggle with this as well since my mom died 2 months ago. As difficult as it is, I try to find some positives somewhere. That gives me a little bit of peace.

My thoughts are with all of you..  re: dreams, I keep having recurring dreams of my Mom and my Aunt...the 2 women who essentially raised me and both are gone now.  When you have this kind of sadness on your mind, I think it's a mental defense mechanism of some sort to dream about them.  Heading into 5 months now since my Mom passed and it feels like yesterday.  People say to "look forward"...sure, I get it, but someone is now missing in my life and it's a big void, no matter how you cut it.

Good morning everyone,

This morning, I woke up from a dream. In the dream, my phone rang and it was my mom! When I picked up the phone, I said, "Hello?" My mom said "Hey Girlie!" and sounded just like her usual, jovial self. I said "Mama!!! I'm so happy to hear your voice!!!"  . . . . I felt absolutely relieved beyond words to know that this had all been  one.  horrible. dream . . . .  and then I woke up. . . in tears.

May the Lord help me and everyone else in this group, through this day. I have faith that somehow, we'll all be able to find what we need, step by step, to keep going on and to be okay. I believe it's what our moms want for us.

Today is my day off. I am really down today. Two years June 26th since my Mom died. How much I miss her. I am completely alone in this world. My job sucks. The people I work with just the worst. Mean, ugly and I just want to cry. I try so hard to be the best I can be. I feel so alone today. I could use my Moms advice and a hug. Mean people seem to control the world. What am I suppose to do with my life.

I have been super emotionaly today.  A good friend of mine lost her mother 11 years ago today.  She still grieves for her.  At the end of June last year we found out my mom  had cancer, she died 6 months later.  I finding the 6 mo anniversary very difficult to cope with. 

I feel so alone...I too feel is if I don't have roots anymore.  My family is selling the house that I grew up in I have always refered to my mom's as home.  There are still many of my things from my childhood are still right where I kept them.

My thoughts and prayers are with everyone here.

I just miss my mom.  I wish she didn't have to leave me.

It's tough when you lose several immediate family members at once...sometimes you wonder if it's some sort of endurance test.  This happened to my cousin many years back.  It took time and support from other family members for her to begin to feel "normal" again.  My thoughts are with you.

Dear family:

I say we are family as we are connected in our loss. We have a lot in common, we love greatly and when there is great love, there is great loss.

 

We are not alone, God is with us every moment. And, I know our beloved mothers are watching, guiding, and protecting us in the spiritual realm.

 

Now, that does not mean that at times I forget all of this and feel

helpless.

 

I wish everyone on this wonderful forum strength, and the certainty that there is a lot more than we perceive. Heaven awaits us when it is our time, and we will be reunited with our loved ones.

It's been a year and a half and I still can't believe my mom is gone.  My entire immediate family is all gone.   I feel like I'm serving some prison sentence where I have to battle the feeling of emptiness until my own last breath.  I'm left alone wondering just exactly what my purpose was on this earth and feel more like whatever it was suppose to be has been supplied.  Now I'm just a bill paying pinball that gets invited to someone elses family gatherings for the holidays so they can say they did a good deed while I get to ache inside watching them all enjoying one another.  I could get a pet to say something is mine but for as cute and loyal as they are it's not the same.  At this point in my life allowing anyone in my life on a personal level is useless.  I'm still so exhausted emotionally over the loss and all the struggles it would be an additional mind game.  I read about the tragic deaths of children and wonder if there is a daily quota to be met in regard to death why does God still spare me knowing I'm miserable and allow the end of an innocent young life?  I just miss my mom so much and will never understand any of this.
