Hello there!
I’m alone at mines and grieving for the loss of my mother! I was looking after my mum for 10+ years of my and now she is suddenly gone 
! My mother passed around Christmas 2023.
Looking after my mum had it’s ups and downs but at the end of the day, i was still there for her. I just miss her so much and i love her to bits.
On some occasions, i feel like i haven’t done a good job of looking after my mother.
It’s such a big loss and I’m struggling mentally.
Hi @Foreverhopeful
I lost my Mum this New Year’s Day so around the same sort of time.
I’m sorry for your loss 
I lost my mum new year’s day too. Although she lived independently she was 83 and I looked after her after dad died five years ago. Dad died of cancer and suffered greatly. Mum never wanted that and just wanted to die in her sleep at home. She got her wish but the sudden nature of her death is what I’m struggling with. I only saw her three hours before all fine! I try to think that it was a privilege to do that for my parents. Try to remember that you did look after her and you were there when she needed you most 
@Titch7674 I’m sorry for your loss! Thank you for your advice, I’ll try and keep that in mind 🩵
@stardust2023 I’m sorry for your loss too and thank you 🩵
How are you doing? 
I’m still not doing great but i’m getting there, thanks for asking. How are you? @Titch7674
Hi, I’m sorry for your loss. I don’t know if you’re still on this chat but your comment reminded me of what I’m going through. I lost my mum in August 24. I had looked after her for over 10 years, I’m just lost without her. We had lots of ups and downs over the years but like yourself I still loved and cared for her till she past.
Four years ago we suddenly lost my youngest sister to cancer and I was left to look after her son, who is the light of my life. I then lost my best friend. So I’ve been left heartbroken over and over, I’m physically exhausted trying to put on a brave face for everyone. I don’t feel that I gave my mother all the love and attention that she deserved as I was exhausted. So I now live with the regret. I just can’t seem to get past it.
Every day I put on a front to face the world but the minute I’m back home I’m an emotional wreck. The silence is deafening, I’ve heard people say this hundreds of time but didn’t know till know just exactly what the meant.
