My mom died 4 months ago
My mom had pulmonary fibrosis. She was sick for a few years. It was funny how when my grandmother smoked, my mom would always say-I’m gonna die from second hand smoke. My mom never smoked. She died from lung disease. Ironic.I was fine at the funeral. Planning. Talking to everyone. I thought u handled it great. Now 4 months later, I’m a mess.

It was the same for me, my father held one hand and I held the other and stroked her hair telling her it was ok for her to go as she took her last breath. She was in tremendous pain for the last week and was heavily medicated, but I never missed the chance to tell her I loved her, believing that she could hear me. The memory of her dying is so hard, I spent the first week in tears. I still cry often and now am left with sadness and sorrow. I feel blessed to have been there when it was her time and to have had the chance to tell her how much I loved her and that brings me some peace.
Hi, my name is aimee. I'm so sorry for your loss. I lost my beautiful mother on May 13, 2012, mother's day, I was her primary care taker at home for her last 2 months and was there at the end. She fought colon cancer for 28 months. The pain is really hard to take. I miss everything about her, I'm trying very hard to stay strong and remember the happy times but night time is the hardest when everything is quiet and my mind wonders. I find peace in believing she knew how much I loved her and was able to honor her wish to die at home. I joined to feel less isolated.
