Seeing the ashes is awful. I look at them at home and can't believe they are my mom's. Is that all that's left of us when we die? I hope you can feel better tomorrow, even if it's just a little bit...

Seeing my mom's ashes the first time was so sad. I cried a lot. I hugged the urn. When we spread my mom's ashes, I felt different. Peaceful. At least in my own grief, I'm finding that anything goes and everything is normal given the circumstances. Some days are okay, on others it seems like it gets worse and worse. you're not alone. If it helps, my grief counselor described the grieving process like a wheel. you can go around many times and experience feelings over and over, and that's normal. But it is terrible that it feels so bad. My sincerest condolences to you on your loss.

I remember when I picked up my husbands ashes as if it was yesterday even though it was seven years ago.its one of those just segregating moments in life you never forget. Time makes the pain less intense but of course it always will be with you. You just learn to live life again around the painithink.
