To the creator of this forum, thank you! I lost my mum last month, July 3rd to lung cancer. She was 89. We were very close. Right now the grief is setting in big time as reality has come back to my mind with a vengence of what I did these past few months caring for her up until she died. I was just reacting to my circumstances and surrounding at the time. Now, that all has left, memories are flooding in and tears and gut wrenching pain is filling my body. I am totally okay that my mum went home to Heaven, but it is the human nature part of missing someone you loved sooooo much here on earth that is killing my insides!!!!
Molim, thank YOU for being here, and for sharing your story. It does take time for the grief to "set in" and I find some people will say that they have a harder time a few months after their loss then they did in the early days. I believe mostly it's because those early days are spent in such a fuzzy, surreal place, that we're not quiet comprehending the person we love is truly gone. And with the loss of a parent, it's an especially big adjustment because we're talking about a person who has literally always been in our life. How do we move forward from that without a lot of time, pain, and work? We can't. I hope you are finding some support and people to talk to. The message boards on this site are just one way to connect. To find others who have lost a parent, you can go to "Make a Connection" and then "Find Others Who are Grieving". From there you can do a search based on the criteria that is important to you. Thanks again for joining...I wish you the best

Hi Joanne - thank you for being here. I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. The loss of a parent is such a significant and painful loss and it can be even harder when you feel you have limited support. This site was created for just that reason and I hope it's a help to you as you connect with others who understand. Thank you for being here and please let us know if there is anything you need ~
