@Deedee9 and @Ribena99 Hi i lost my mom a few weeks ago. I have the funeral next week which I am dreading.i’m putting on a brave face for my grown up children and partner as they were very close to my mom, but i just feel numb.i went back to work not long after it all happened, but i feel I’m just putting on a fake persona that I’m fine when I’m really not. All people keeping saying is oh your coping so well, when actually I think I’m in a state of disbelief.
Sending hugs to you both x

I agree, I think the disbelief is what takes you over to start with. So sorry, but I hope you can do your mum proud at the funeral. I felt better afterwards as we had been able to say the things we needed. X

Yes i think its the shock at first, all the planning & being busy , not really allowing the reality to sink in. The funeral is surreal & another part of the process to accepting & somehow adjusting
