I have lived with my mum all my life 66 years, she has always been there for me ,and me for her,mum died 5weeks ago,she had dementia, which she had for 14 years i have looked after her all that time by myself family would not help.over the last 4 years it got really bad but I would do it all over again,I loved that lady so much,I miss her much I have done nothing but cry for the last 5 weeks,I wS with her when she died in her sleep holding her hand…how I get over her I just don’t know I miss her every day, night is the worst not to hear her voice, or see her gorgeous smile. I’m just lost without mum.

Hi Memphis, I’m so sorry to hear about the death of your Mum, I can so understand how much you must miss her, she’s been there with you all of your life and suddenly all has changed, have you any other family or friends that can support you ? Have you thought about counselling either through Sue Ryder or Cruse, it might help you, there’s no time scale to grief, you just have to take a day at a time or even an hour, the pain will start to ease and you will start to be able to carry on with your life, sending love Jude xx
