Hello I’ve just signed up. I lost my amazing mam two weeks ago, suddenly and unexpectedly, no warning at all and she wasn’t ill. I just can’t come to terms that I’ll never get to speak or see my mam again, it doesn’t seem real! My heart is in so much pain I can’t see how I can be in a world without my mam x

Hello,
I’m so sorry for the loss of your mother. I lost my father just over three weeks ago. We found out on 15th September that dad had metestatic cancer and he passed away 8 weeks later.
I feel so lost and alone. I can’t bare the thought of not speaking or seeing my lovely dad again. The pain is horrendous.
You are not alone. It is devestating to lose a parent.

Hello Katherine
I am so sorry to hear about your dad - I totally understand, I went to see my mam for the last time today before her funeral tomorrow and cannot comprehend that was the last time I will see her every again - the pain is unbearable xx
Thank you. I feel like I’ve lost my compass in life and nothing makes sense to me anymore. I hate waking up and realising that dads not here and fall asleep missing him. There is no escape from the pain and sadness. I hope in time I will remember all of the lovely things we did together but at the moment the sudden loss is too raw.
I saw my dad in chapel of rest the day before his funeral and it was a surreal experience. I’m so sorry that you are going through this too it’s heartbreaking.
I hope the funeral goes well I am sure your mum is with you and is so proud of you.
Sending lots of love and strength.
Xx
