I’m so sorry about your mum @Sjaa. Thank you for sharing this with us - I’m just giving your thread a “bump” - I’m sure someone will be along to share their thoughts.

Hey, it’s natural to feel guilty that you didn’t do enough or save her from dying. But I’m sure it isn’t your fault.
I still feel a bit guilty about my mum & dad who both died in 2021, wondering if I could have done more to help them.

Hello i looked after my mum until i couldnt cope any more because i have MS, but i still saw her everyday when the carers came. When she died i kept thinking i could have done more but then my friend said you did the best you can under the circumstances. So try to think you did the best you can because you loved her x

remember: she does not want you to feel bad. we kind of do it to ourselves. :heart:
