My mum has been gone 5 weeks, and I feel worse. Everything has lost its sparkle, and I cant believe I will never see her again.

Hi,

I’m so sorry for your loss. I lost my mum 7 weeks ago (I think, time has stood still since she passed). I visited my mums grave the other day and saw my dad sitting beside her all alone. I just burst out into tears.

This time is so difficult, I really feel for you. I have no advice or words of wisdom and will just say it’s awful and I’m sending lots of good vibes to you!!

It may not be what you want to hear but it will feel worse for now because you’re still processing what has happened and adjusting to that loss. I promise you though that without even noticing you’ll start to feel a little brighter day by day. You will always miss your Mum, that will never go away but you’ll find a way to cope and move forward. Not on but forward.

I lost my Mum a year ago in May so have gone through the many ups and downs. Always here for you x

Dear Molly
I’m sorry sorry you’ve lost your mum sending much love your way.i lost my mum 7 weeks ago.
As the weeks have gone on I find it so so hard that I’m not going to see her again or tell her what I’ve been up too.
Is so very hard isn’t it & im with you with all the same thoughts…
I’ve had such a bad week.
Missing her, having emotions go up & down and also I’ve felt angry & that normally in my nature……
I’ve been crying a lot & hate this grief feeling, it’s making me feel ill…
Sending much love & thoughts your way & im here if you want to let off steam with your thoughts.
Will
