I lost my beautiful mum quite suddenly 2 weeks ago, we sat with her for 4 days not leaving her side. We weren’t prepared to lose her so quickly.
It’s such a weird feeling, but sometimes I almost forgot she has gone, as if nothing has changed. Like she is at home still. Like I’ve just been with her.
Then I realise and all the sadness rushes through me, and I feel guilty for thinking that nothing has changed when everything most certainly has.
I feel confused, almost blank at times. Is that normal?

Hello Miss My Mum,
I’m so sorry for your loss.
Yes this is normal & hopefully she is still with you in spirit. Being numb one minute & devastated the next is par for the course. Be kind & patient with yourself & get support from others who love & miss her.
I lost my mum 4.5 months ago & the pain is still raw but at times it feels like a lifetime since I last saw her. I keep hoping I wake up & this was a nightmare.

Hello I also lost my mum 16 weeks ago. I also experience the same feelings.
It’s hard to come to terms with. Such a big void. I just try and remember the good memories and that my mum wouldn’t want me to be sad. Sending strength and love yo you all x
Hello sweetie x Big hugs
So sorry for your loss. You are not alone x
I lost my mum in April. I know she’s gonna but don’t feel it most the time, I can’t. I have to much to do, i.e. kids & my dad. I can’t look at photos of her or touch her jumpsuit.
We all process things in our own way. Be kind to yourself x

Our mums definitely wouldn’t want us to be so sad but it’s not that easy to move on. I feel stuck in the pain of my grief. I can’t think about good times as that makes me miss her even more (not that that is possible). It’s still so raw.
I can see that us missing them so much means we were blessed to have the best mums ever.

I remember the Queen saying something like “Grief is the price we pay for love" how right that is.
