Hi @Mymom123
I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your mum and although we all grieve differently I can empathise as my mum was my best friend, my housemate and my confidant and I miss her terribly.
Do you have friends and family close by that can help you during this time?
Everyone is here to help,
Take care,

Sorry this message has gone to wrong recipient. Should be for MyMom.
Sorry Mymom about what’s happened
and what you are going through. Even though I’d been married, I’m a widow now, I lived with Mum and didn’t have children. It’s so difficult isn’t it. I can offer kindness and compassion but sadly have no wisdom. Stay safe and take care of yourself. There is always plenty of company on here.

I’m sorry for your loss I lost my mum in December aswell. Like you my mum was my world. I had my mums funeral over a week ago and it was probably the 2nd hardest day of my life. First was losing my mum like you I didn’t know how I was going to get through it but I did. Only bit of advice I can give is on the day just do a step at a time like getting up and dressed etc. It has hit me more now after the funeral. I’m here if you want to talk x

Somehow you do it I think my legs just took over. My mums funeral was and still is bit of a blank. Have you got someone to walk in with you? I got asked to help push my mums coffin in and somehow I found the strength and I did it. It will be hard I found it hard but I just did it for my mum.

I know me and my mum had things planned aswell. I was hoping my mum would be out of hospital for Christmas but she wasn’t. It’s not easy I feel very lonely at moment the visits and phone calls have started to stop its 6 weeks today since my mum passed away but to me feels like 6 seconds ago. It was just me and mum at home and we were very close I’m only 30 now I have new responsibilities which is hard aswell

Me too I hoped my mum would be out for Xmas and her 75th birthday at the end of Dec but it wasn’t to be and instead of getting excited about xmas I was left to arrange and deal with her funeral etc.
Like you there were phone calls and texts every day from close friends and family but now about 7 weeks on the calls have very much slowed down and days I’m not at work can be very long and lonely.
I hope you are having some good days and taking care of yourself
