Don't grieve alone; 14,000 members and growing
My mother passed away in May of 2010 from Ovarian Cancer. She died five months to the day she was diagnosed. It was so quick and I didn't even have time to say goodbye to her. One minute she was having her last chemo and was talkative and that night she turned blue and was rushed to ICU unconscious. She never woke up.
My dad started dating three months after mom passed and I can't visit my mother's grave as much as I would like to since she is buried up north. I have been through counseling and taking antidepressants, which help, but I am still going through a hard time. I am trying to get on with my life, but I miss her so much! My brother and father seem to be coping well and I'm the one struggling.

We all cope with grief differently, in our own ways. I lost my husband November 16, 2010. As the first year anniversary gets closer, I am having a harder time. I'm also on antidepressants. I lost my mother in August this year. Your father and brother are coping the way they can, maybe they keep their grief inside. It's okay to be sad and miss your mother; she was and is very special to you. Since you can't visit her grave as much as you'd like, is there a way you can find a quiet place near your home that you can go and grieve and talk to her? It could be your own private memorial to her. I don't know what you believe, but I find comfort that my husband and mother are watching over us and I still feel their love.
Mothers are so special, someone told me that we don't lose our mothers because they are always in our hearts.
