    My mother passed away yesterday. It was quick and gentle, but the loss I feel is undescribable. I'm happy she's free and my heart is at peace, but she was like my best friend and I feel like I'm missing half of myself. Nights are the worst because that was our time, as we were both night owls and that was our time to chit chat and bond. I was her caretaker during her illness, by her side day and night and was there as she passed. I feel so lost now.

      I can relate, my mom died a little over a week ago. And I don't know what I'm doing. I was her caretaker majority of my life and was the one trying to revive her as she passed. No one can understand it because each person had a different relationship with her due to her illnesses. But I loved her so much and I have no idea what the right thing to do is now. I'm on antidepressants, trying so hard everyday just to not kill myself, and I talk to friends and family but nothing feels like it's making any difference. And as the days have gone it's gotten easier I think. But I just want to quit my job and cry. My husband and I lived with her and my dad. She and I were the only ones at home majority of the days because I'm working from home and now I'm all alone most of my day.

      Lost my mom about 3 weeks ago. She was diagnosed and passed in only 7months. She was only 64 years old. We are devastated, we watched her suffer greatly and it’s so hard to get those images out of our heads. I struggle because we had so much hope she was going to live, she had a stem cell transplant with a 100% sibling Match. Even the doctors were so confident in her odds. Then she took a turn and ended up in ICU for a month unresponsive. Then she passed. I know time heals but right now I feel like I will never know joy again. I try to push myself because I know that’s what my mom wanted, her worst fear was she would pass and we all would never heal from it. So I owe it to her to be strong now and try to cope the best I can and try to find joy in my life.

    edit: thank you for all the kind words, it means to world to me. it’s been almost 7 month since my dad passed away and it was extremely hard to go out through my days without crying and reminiscing on the beautiful memories we had together. it’s gotten a little easier to live from day to day but the void is still very much there.

    I lost my dad 13 years ago and his loss affects me more now than it ever did before.
    The day after he passed, we were cleaning out his truck... in the cupholder was the fortune cookie that he refused to open (days prior when our family went out to dinner).
    I insisted that he open it at the restaurant but he kept it instead. I opened it the day after his passing, it read:
    You Are Heading to a Land of Sunshine

      Well ,I cannot relate to the death of your mother with sadness. But I have something important to say. You know how it feels at the loss of a parent.
      But the fact that someone regards this as a "change in life" and relies on other people to get comfort without relying on God. Not even thinks about praying for the loss of a parent. Its like they ignore the death by allowing friends to calm them down.
      It feels very very weird. If I am wrong anyhow could you explain?

    I'm already crying typing this because I lost my mother only 4 months ago due to cancer. She told us back in 2018 and I remember coming home from work one night already crying as I walked through the door, keep in mind it was only a few months into our family understanding this and being there for my mother during her treatments, but I was walking to my bedroom and my mother who had fallen asleep on the couch in the living room while watching TV heard me and ran over to my room to check on me. With worry on her face she asked me "What's wrong son? What happened?" and all I could do was point at the tubes in her body as a way of telling her "I'm worried about you" and being the mother she was, she comforted me and told me "Don't worry about me, son. I'll be fine" with a smile on her face, and then she hugged me.
    That's just one of the many memories of my mother I have, I just miss her, and what makes it even worse is she passed only a few days before her only grandchilds birthday and I just moved out of state and was doing poorly financially so I couldn't make it back home to be by her side but even during the facetime calls she made it a point to tell me she loved me and not to worry.
    I sometimes scroll through her text messages and begin to cry again, it's going to be hard going forward because when I do start a family. She won't be there to meet them, and that's what hurts the most.

What happen to you? Why are your sister crying “ she was worried about me in such time .. she went afteward to the icu and lost conscious then died .. I miss her every day and minutes she was everything in my life.

    My dad passed away at 61 due to a blood clot in his lungs just a day ago. Too young for me to lose my favorite person in the world. I lost him and didn’t get to properly say goodbye. He was gone so quick. He wasn’t just my father. He was my best friend. I’ve never been more shocked and depressed in my life and I don’t know how I’ll go on without him. I have no idea it doesn’t make any sense.

    I love this. Life IS what WE make of it. Move on, even though the darkest of days or get left behind to drown in misery. My mom passed away unexpectedly. There was no time to think about it. She was here one day and gone the next. She was the anchor of the family. I choose to remember the happy. Not dwell on the bad. I choose to adapt, evolve and make her proud by the strength that I've fought to find. Happy, loving, wonderful vibes to you.

    Buried my father this past Saturday. My dad went through a lot. Seeing him in the hospital was very hard. Ultimately, his passing was a roller coaster of emotions. But overall, I’m comfortable knowing he’s at peace and resting.
    At 30, I felt like a kid again. My mom consoling me at the funeral made me realize the importance of parents and how appreciative we must be.
    It’s a different feeling but like she said, “you have to feel what you feel.”

      It sucks, I know how you feel. People will say stay strong and blah blah. All I can say is that it sucks and what worked for me was accepting the loss.
      I spent my whole life fearing the loss of my parents and now that it's happened, I have learned to stop running away from it and accepted it.
      I feel good some days and lonely and depressed others. I accept it all. I also did something very different than when my Dad passed; I decided to stop being an atheist.
      Too many strange things happened after my Mother passed for me to believe they were coincidences. I truly believe that she is not with me in body but her spirit lives on, and that she watches over us and I will see her again one day.
      This has brought me much more peace and acceptance. I wish you the best in this journey. It sucks, but the truth is, it will happen to everyone.

      @@sweetsupernova631 hi! Thanks for the kind words. Hard to explain, it's been a series of events. My Mother was always a more "in your face" in a good way, personality. I feel her presence more so than my Dad, which is a reflection of his more quiet, stoic personality in life, though he also loved me very much.
      I've also seen a medium a few times. Not a John Edwards "is there someone with an M in their name", type. A serious medium who doesn't cold read and doesn't ask questions.
      She spoke only facts and asked no questions. And everything she said was true. My Mom basically spoke thru her and believe it or not, helped me find answers to where certain documents and legal processes were.
      Aside from that, I was awoken by my Mother one night, because the water had been left on (watermain was serviced, no water the whole day). I had left the kitchen sink on to see when we would have water again, this was at my Mother's house, as we were staying there to prepare for the service.
      I was asleep, dreaming and suddenly, through my dream, my Mother appeared to me and shook me awake. Can't explain it, other than it felt and smelt like her. I had the feeling I should go downstairs and when I did, I heard the faucet shooting water out full blast against stacked dishes in the sink, and wetting the floor.
      This was exactly something my Mother would have been on top of in life, as she was a little ocd with house affairs. I would not have heard the water from upstairs and she woke me up specifically to deal with it and as an "I'm here with you" gesture.
      There's more, but I'll leave it there for now. Instinctually, I just feel I know there's more to this life now. I was a card carrying skeptic and atheist-leaning agnostic but I feel more assured and aware of things now.
      I can't tell you I know for sure that there is more after death, but I feel a very strong 75% positive there is. And that number, for me, is hard to refute. Cheers.

    I woke up this morning (March 9th, 2022), to find out that my father had passed. I cried for hours, and many people came to mourn with me and my brothers. I didn't go to school that day, and it didn't feel real, but I know I will see him someday. I didn't realize it until he was gone, but he was the most major person in my life, and he guided me through everything. He was so kind, patient, successful, and he never did anything wrong. Life will never be the same without him. He died in his sleep, and it was unexpected. I am only 12 years old, and my two younger brothers are 7, and 9, so they don't quite understand. Maybe I don't either. All I know is that he is in a good place.

    I lost my dearest Dad two weeks ago, I am 23 and I didn't have a chance to say goodbye. It hurts so bad, sometimes I think I am not able to handle this pain, this emptyness. I have a huge problem with an excessive sense of self-blame. Over the past 3 years we were separated, because of Covid, then because of war. I haven't seen him since 2019. I cried and had severe depression, cause I missed him so much. Only thing that kept me motivated to move on is the thought that one day I will come back home, hug him and never let go. But I didn't. And never will.

I'm so sorry for your loss - and for the immense pain that comes with it. My tears are a symbol of love with no place to go. I'm going to keep working on finding places for this love to go and honoring him in the balance.

    My mom passed one month ago. I appreciate you bravely sharing your experience, and relate to not really knowing how to act. At social events, everyone was so kind to me and wanting to talk about my mom. But I wasn't always wanting to get into that intense emotional place, especially in public. Then, if I started having fun and smiling, I would worry that people were looking at me, and judging me that I was "already" having fun just a couple weeks after my mom's death. Then I would go home and cry my eyes out like a baby. Other days, I would be filled with anger. And still other days, I would have zero energy, and just feel overwhelmed by life. I've learned the cliche that grief comes in waves. And the path to healing is not linear: there are good days and bad days.

Yeah I have noth parents but seeing her in pain hurts and I can't talk to her from her point of view but I'll still be there for her no matter how long it takes. I wanna assure her that she isn't alone and I'll make an effort to see her happy n back to her old self. Sometimes it takes those around you to help you in the healing process

She will always be a little bit sad even tho she is laughing. This kind of emotion of loosing your parent never really goes away, it will stay for a long time. But how time goes on it will be more in the background of things. So you can only be there for her , distract her or when you see that she wants to talk about it, you talk to her about her mom. It will be easier for both of you how the time passes

    I lost my mom three years ago and honestly I took care of her for majority of her illness but I could have done a better job at it. I guess I always believed she would be okay and that she wasn’t going anywhere. It didn’t hit me that she was really leaving until her health to a deep decline and her physical appearance began to change and then her mind started slipping. But the hardest part was seeing her in the hospital bed unable to speak and I wanna believe she knew who I was but I’m not really sure she did. My mom was my very best friend she helped me raise my children and she supported me through everything. Through my own struggle with cancer my drug addiction and overall life. She was my backbone. And when she died I think I did too because my life took a drastic turn for the worst I began to not care about anything and it almost cost me my life. I was in the worst situation imaginable and I could not see a way out. I thought my life was at an end. Well even in the grave she still continues to be my counsel and my rock. One day I broke down because I was ready to give up and all I could do was pray pray harder then I ever had before. And as I cried for her and asked god to take me to her. A peace like no other took over me almost like she was holding me reassuring me that this was just a moment that would pass. And when I finally made it out of that situation by the grace of god I vowed to her and god to clean up my act because my children deserved a mother like the one I had. And that’s exactly what I have been doing. I still have a long way to go before I become the woman I know she would be proud of but as god as my witness I’m going to spend the rest of my days making sure all her sacrifices and hardships were not in vain. And as far as the grief I’m not sure that ever goes away because even now I type this and my heart is completely broken because the one person that I could always turn too is gone. Thank God for the real family and friends he surrounded me with because they make things easier to bare. Her birthday is coming soon and all I can think of is how much I wish she was here so I could get on her nerves and how I wanna sniff her pillow cause it always smelled like her and when I was a kid and she was gone I sniffed her pillow to feel like she was there with me. But I no longer have any of that but I have my children that she adored and also me and my brother look exactly like her so she is still around. I just wish I could hold her anyway thanks for letting me share the story of my best friend. Also I’m sorry for anyone that knows this loss. We will never recover it just becomes easier to bare as time goes on but that ache will never go away. Plus if any of your loved ones was as sick as my mother find comfort in knowing their pain has ended. And hold onto that because it will get you through the days.

I’m all alone and nobody understands exactly what I’m going through. People try to be nice. However, the first words out of their mouth are always, I can’t even begin to imagine what you’re going through. Edna right. You can’t imagine it because it’s a pain I didn’t even know existed.

    She was always full of life
    We were each others pillars, each others support
    It all feels unreal, like a bad dream
    Feels like she's about to comeback at some point, like none of it ever happened
    I feel weak without her, she was my everything
    But I'm trying to stay strong for her and in turn for myself
    For now it seems like life lost all it's meaning for me
    Waking up is incredibly hard, especially when you're alone
    Pretty often ( almost every day ) it hits me so hard and all I can do is cry it out

My fathed died abruptly, got diagnosed with advanced gastric cancer with metastasis after one month of taking care of him at the hospital, traveling back to Mexico but trying to keep my job at the same time, it was so difficult, I had to travel back for work hoping he could make it a little bit longer, but he died when I was away. I know he was waiting for me because I could have a last videocall with him, still alive but unconscious, he passed away when the call finished.
    It just changed everything, I feel huge a disassociation and numbness, guilt and impotence.

The pain is unbearable at times, and during those times, I allow myself to cry. I know that, even though my parents are not physically here, they are both with me, and watching over me. They are in my heart wherever I go. I know your parents love you very much,, and will be your guardian angels and guiding light as you continue to live on. I do hope this brings you some comfort.
