Hello. My mom passed away on Monday, and my dad has been gone since 2004. I’m an adult orphan, and these feelings are so raw. I miss them both. At least while my mom was alive, I felt a connection to my dad, but now that she’s gone, I’m just lost.
I do feel the same. I lost my father in 2000. And I lost my mother in July. It feel like I have lost my purpose and everything is just worthless.
My mom passed 6 weeks ago. My dad died yesterday on his birthday. They were together 58 years. We are devastated and it feels like drowning. We are Christians and therefore I have faith and assurance that they are together in heaven. Still, it is very difficult and I cry all the time. It is difficult to see how I am going to live the rest of my life without them
I have been having those same feelings about losing the connection. My mother died in 2018. We were still able to share stories about my father and our favorite memories. I am missing those moments.
