My mum was gone in a blink of an eye

I lost my beautiful mummy one year ago, she went to hospital and didn’t come back a week later, nothing could be done for her, the mass was 10 cm big in her chest and she was tiny! and it feels worse now than ever.....finally realising she’s not going to pop up on my phone or turn up at my door....... I miss the most the things that used to annoy me!..... I would give anything for her to annoy me again..... she gave the best advise........ all I can do know is remember all she taught me and carry it through to my daughters and my granddaughter who arrived like a blessing within a month of her dying........ one in one out they say don’t they......... wish it wasn’t her though xxxxx

  • So sorry to read the pain in your words. I too lost my mum suddenly Feb 22 2019, she had gone in hospital for a chest infection, 2 weeks later I had to say my goodbyes as we turned the machines off. I can see that you took strength from your family and am hoping my two girls (9,12) will help me find strength like you.

    i can’t cope with the emptiness, I am an only child and dad died ten years ago, this feeling I am left with is unbearable. It was lung cancer that took my mum and none of us knew. I want to ask if you have found some way to cope you could share? Did you seek counselling? 

    I am at a loss, I am so angry that I didn’t see the signs sooner. Grief is the loudest silence I have ever heard. Xx
