My birthday

I lost my mum in August. Today is my birthday and I feel like the grief has hit me so badly. I’m experiencing physical symptoms and I have cried so much. I am miserable and missing my mum so much.

@MiloReine7 I’m so sorry for your loss. My birthday is ages away, but i’m still dreading it. My mums love language was gifts, and i know it sounds stupid, but the thought of not ever receiving a gift from her again, fills me with tears.

Please try to be kind to yourself, and do something nice for your birthday.

When you lost that love and 100 percent pure love, it’s very hard to find that again, practically impossible in today’s :earth_americas:. But maybe we should class ourselves lucky we had that in the first place ?

Happy Birthday @MiloReine7 ,

So very sorry to hear that you are in pain

My mam passed on 14th August last year, 148 days ago, when it was my birthday in November I put up a card that my mam sent to me the year before, she wrote beautiful words in it, although it hurt like hell not hearing her tell me ‘Happy Birthday’, it really did help me having her card up

Hope this helps

Ps, I done the same at Christmas too
