It hurts so bad

I am so sorry for your loss. I cannot begin to imagine how you are feeling, its actually killing me just thinking about it becuz my mom too is my best friend. I only see her 2 or 3x a year because we live on different continents. I always worry while I'm away that something will happen to her or my dad. I'm 22, haven't gotten married or have kids, so I always pray to God to give her enough years to atleast meet her grandchildren. I guess you can take some comfort in knowing that she did meet and interact with your son and got the chance to love him and care for him.

I cannot give good advice cuz I would be a mess, but all I can say is to keep making ur mom proud. She wouldn't want you to fall apart because of her, she'd want to see u reaching for ur goals...

My deepest sympathy goes out to u.

I'm very sorry to hear of your loss, what a shock it must be. It's hard to find the right words to help, this is such a personal thing. Try to think what she would want you to do and carry on with your life with your son. I wish you well and hope for your healing.

Oh my goodness, I can hear the pain and grief in your words. I am so very sorry for your loss. I can't imagine losing either of my parents. You will be in my thoughts and prayers this week. My heart goes out to you!

My heart goes out to you I am so sorry for your loss.

I am so, so sorry. There are no words to express how very sorry I am for your loss. I cannot give you any advice... I wish I could... only that in reading your post, I can only imagine the pain you are feeling.

I am just so terribly sorry.

I am soooooooooooooooooo very sorry for your loss. You have to be devastated. My heart hurts for you. I lost my dad at 16, he was 53. It hurt bad, but I just lost my mom a couple years ago and even though I am 25 years older then you it was very hard. I miss her everyday, I think it is the mother/daughter bond. It sounds like you were very close to your mom, that is awesome. Not everyone is blessed with such a loving, nurturing, relationship with their mother. That speaks to your character. Try to remember her love and keep her spirit alive. Life isn't fair sometimes but you have to go on, your mom would want that. Let yourself grieve. Don't let anyone tell you how much or how long to mourn. You need to give yourself time to heal, it will come with time. You can honor your mom by being the best mom you can be to your child. I just don't have any words that will make you feel better right now. If you need to don't hesitate to seek professional counseling to help you with your grief at this most difficult time in your life. Don't change jobs, don't make any major changes while you are so raw. Good decisions don't come while you are so emotional. I will be thinking and praying for you in your family. Hang on to those you have close to you and find solace and peace that God won't give you more then you can handle though it may seem like it right now.

Reading your post is making my heart hurt, and I'm about to cry. I haven't experienced what you're experiencing right now, but I am so very sorry for your loss. The best advice I could give you is to grieve how you need to grieve, remember that there are people out there who completely adore you and will never stop giving you a shoulder to cry on, and that your mother loves you with every bit of her heart. Never cease to be thankful for your son and show him the love your mother has shown you. You're in my thoughts and prayers. If you ever need someone to talk to, feel free to message me.

I want to send you my deepest sympathies.

I can let you know from experience it's a very difficult thing to deal with. I lost my mom when I was 19years old and she wasn't sick or anything, she happened to pass in the car while my father was driving. She had a asthma heart attack (as stated on the death certificate). My world changed forever and I had to take on alot of responsibility quickly.. At the time my brother was 14years old and my dad couldn't care for himself, he's not self sufficent. I had to become mom for both of them and it was hard. I stood strong for the family and did everything that had to be done to keep us together and get thru it... My brother went to counseling for a few months and my dad took it very hard but did speak to a counselor also. I personally didn't because I dealt with it in my own way by just making sure the family was taken care of and provided for. After years went on things got a better... now that it's almost 13 years later we have become stronger then ever.



It will be the little things
that you will remember,
the quiet moments,
the smiles, the laughter.
And although it may seem
hard right now,
it will be the memories
of these little things
that help to push
away the pain
and bring the smiles
back again.


With Heartfelt Sympathy,
From my family to yours

I'm so sorry. I feel like I know you from seeing your picture and posts on here. You always seem so upbeat and fun and I know you were just talking about wanting to have another baby. Your words in this post convey how unspeakably devastated you are right now and I'm sorry I don't have words to make it better. Every single one of us has to face our friends' and family's deaths at some point unless our death comes first. And all we can do is cry and pray and try to keep breathing and functioning and take this time to take stock. Like you were saying asking everyone to tell their mother they love them tonight. It gives us a chance to evaluate the life we're living.... who we wanna be, what we wanna do, and how we're treating people in our lives. It puts everything in perspective. I'll say a prayer for you right now and will pray for comfort and peace and that you will gain the perspective your mom wants you to have and even in grief, will find a blessing.

:flowerforyou:

I lost my Mom suddenly at the age of 21 also. I'm sorry for your loss, and don't hesitate to message me. :flowerforyou:

you are in my prayers, as is your family. The only thing that helped me through my grief was to surround myself with family when I needed a hug, and to give myself the time and place to cry and grieve on my own when I needed it. I also console myself with knowing that my loved one is in a better place, with no more hurt, pain, grief, and that they are watching over me. I will pray for you and yours.

Praying for you

I'm so so sorry. :brokenheart:

Just do what you can to make it through, there is no good advice. Feel what you are feeling, take time alone if you need it, take time with loved ones if you need it, and just let those who love you love you.

We are thinking about you.

My heart goes out to you :flowerforyou: My father passed away 3 years ago and I still think about him everyday. Our family still talks about him often which does help me. My dad was an electrician and last Christmas when the lights went out only in mom's living room - we joked about how dad was reminding us that he is looking out for us. Some days will be easier than others.

Your advice to everyone to let their parents know they love them was wonderful. You never know what will happen tomorrow.

I am sending heartfelt thoughts and prayers your way.

Everyone please call and tell your mother you love them tonight. Please do it for me.

And I tell people that all the time...call her and tell her you love her, just because you can.
