I agree. No matter how much talking I do with my partner or daughter its just not the same. I want to talk, in person to people who have recently lost their mums
I did look for any support groups local to me but it seems they either don’t exist or are well hidden. That’s when I came across this online forum. I wouldn’t even know where to start in setting up a physical support group.
We probably all live in different parts of the country. I’m in kent.
I’m on the kent/sussex border.
This is actually weird now! I’m in tonbridge in Kent and work in Westerham which is heading towards the border. Maybe we should try and organise a little coffee.
No way. All 3 of us nearby.
Sounds great. I’m near maidstone. I’m on the train line into London Victoria but happy to drive somewhere
Tunbridge wells is about half an hour away from me.

I’m sorry for your loss. It must be so hard to watch a loved one slowly decline. Are you aware of the alzheimers uk forum?
My friends have arranged a night out for me tonight. I don’t want to go but they have arranged an intervention. My husband has shoe horned me into a dress. I’ve cried solidly for two hours and I have a headache. But I’m going. Wish me luck. My mum would be happy to see me go out. X
Good luck joules
You’re very brave. I’ve completely withdrawn from social situations even though I used to love get togethers.
You’re right, your mum would want you to go
