My Mom passed almost two months ago. I'm still not wanting to believe it. I used to call her every other day just to talk about work and to see what she was doing. She would also always send a text every morning just to day hello. Even though the last month of her life in August when she was very sick, the message was still sent every other day. I really miss it, and I don't know what to do. My mom taught me so many things in life, but she never taught me how to live without her at least being a phonecall away.
Oh honey… my heart goes out to you It’s so hard, isn’t it? And everyone tells me, “She’s in a better place.” I DON’T CARE!!! I want her back. I know we are “supposed” to lose out parents, but this just hurts so bad. She was the only person I could really talk to and I feel so lost. I imagine you feel similar about the loss of your mom. I’m sorry you’re going through this. I wish I had words of comfort, but I don’t know if there are any… Sending you hugs❤️❤️❤️
A bit late but yes, all of this, just ya. Lost my mom to a drunk driver on 11/18/23 and am still missing everything so deeply. The void is real, and no chance to do it again, say goodbye, fix things that we only realize as we age. It’s hard. I hope you have found a new ok, and are moving on a little more easily.
Hi Karyl, I am so deeply sorry for your loss! I feel the same after loosing my mom barely a month ago. All I keep repeating to myself is I WANT MY MOM!! Why can nobody understand the desperation in this cry? They tell me feel lucky you shared so many good memories or she is lucky she did not suffer, true, still she was not ready to leave us, nor were we. It was too sudden. I barely got half way the thought things may turn bad when I had an outburst with my Doctor and he tried to prepare me. But to pass 3 days later? Who was ready for that? She was not even ready. She asked me when I would be arriving in Rome and kept on thinking on Monday. I told her twice, no, mom Tuesday, Monday is the day I fly out. Then it turns out mom leaves us Sunday. It was so unfair! I would have never been ready to say my last goodbye anyways, but I know she was looking forward to seeing me. Distance is terrible when your parents age and you are an only child. Had been preparing myself to cope with her health deteriorating and being close to her, spending my nights by her side to comfort her and support her. But that was like a movie that never happened sadly. You can see from the way I write my mind jumps from place to place trying to make sense of what just happened, but it doesn't. Is that how you also feel? Sending you a big comforting hug
She was also my best true friend, so I know your pain and loss, missing your bestie to tell her what happened and how you feel. You knew her suggestions and recommendations were always in your best interest and trustworthy. There is a big hole there now. But I still talk to her. Try that too!
