Hi Douglas

Your post moved me to join this group. i'm so sorry you feel so bad. I feel like you but I can't even cry. I wake up every morning and gasp when I remember again that my Mum is gone. I lost my Mum in March and had to rush back to England. Ended up staying 4 months dealing with everything because my four siblings after behaving disgracefully just selfishly went right back to their lives without hardly skipping a beat. I spent months in my family home, wearing my Mum's clothes, sleeping in her bed. My dad is a selfish alcoholic, my Mum died waiting for him to stop drinking like an animal. It was hell being under the same roof as him. I was left alone to deal with everything despite begging my sisters to help me. Although I have lived far away for a long time, my Mum was my best friend and we spent hours on the phone. I signed off as co-executor of my Mum's estate and trusted my sister to follow through after I got it as far as the probate court and now she has emptied the bank account and I can't get hold of her. I've got behind with everything and now the attorney won't even talk to me. What a horrible mess. Why can't we just grieve for our mothers without all the nastiness. Hope you are feeling a bit better today.

Sorry I am late for seeing your post. Just checking in to see how you are doing?
I lost my mom nearly 5 weeks ago, and I am still in shock. As an only child it
has been so hard to lose my mom and my best friend. Living in the house with her
had to be double hard. Please contact me if every you need to talk with someone.

Sending hugs and blessings,
Boabie
