Members Mikey Posted August 8, 2014 Members Report Share Posted August 8, 2014 I feel a little weak starting this topic but I'm in tears. My beautiful mum died on 19 July 2013, the 55th anniversary of my parents' marriage. I adored her, not just as a mum but as the person who gave me my values and I hope my kindness to others. Most of the time I am fine and pragmatic about life and death, other times I just break down and miss her so much. Any words would be appreciated, I know there's no magic formula.

Members Sbelavek Posted August 9, 2014 Members Report Share Posted August 9, 2014 Mikey, My mom passed 10 days before yours. Tomorrow it will be one month. Do not feel weak starting a topic, this forum has helped me realize that I'm not alone. I saw a counselor once since she passed, but an online grief group can provide an outlet to read/write/cry at any hour of the day or night. And it's all ok. Like you, my mom gave me all the values I possess today. She was a single parent, so I truly feel "orphaned" now after her passing. Everyone keeps telling me I now have a guardian angel watching over me. I haven't "felt" her presence in awhile and keep looking for the signs. A white butterfly flew back and forth at her grave sight and landed on her flowers the day we buried her, and I've seen 3 white doves (all in the same location; perhaps just a resident?) since her passing. I keep hoping they are sent to me from me as a sign that she is at peace. I think time is the only thing that can help mend our broken hearts. I wish I had stronger words.
