My mother died of a stroke 3 weeks ago prior to this she was battling terminal cancer and only had months to live. I like everyone thought she had more time so when she was acting strange on day it didn't click that she had a stroke till I tried to help her in her wheelchair and almost dropped her. Then I knew the mom i knew was gone. She was in the hospice for 3 days before she died I was there as much as possible. When she died I had accepted it. She was no longer in pain and had no worries . But as time goes on I forget that she's gone and go to text her or call her and it hits me hard all over again. I took care of her when she found out she had cancer she lived with my family. So for a year 5 days a week she would be with me hanging out. Now I sit and stare at her chair. I miss her so much my husband is having the same problems he is devistated. Is this going to ease up I don't ever expect to not miss her but I need to get rid of the feeling that she alive

Sorry to hear about your loss.

It's 9 weeks since my Dad died and although I know he's passed away, I still go to call and txt him, I expect to see him sometimes when I wake and I've shouted him too. It's completely natural and you really are at the start of the grieving process (such a cliche but there really is a process) .. Having a husband that is feeling similar will give you much needed support as you can both be there for each other. Take your time don't rush how you're feeling, the mind will sort itself out. Over the next few weeks/months there's going to be ups and downs but this is how most will feel to going through the same situation. Be strong :)
