Members cb92 Posted November 9, 2014 Members Report Share Posted November 9, 2014 My mum lost her 3 year long battle with breast cancer on 30th December 2014. She was my best friend, I could talk to her about anything and everything. Although we were prepared for her passing, it still does not feel real. I am always half expecting that she will walk through the door and give me a hug and ask me how my day was. I have never lost anyone close to me before and I don't know what to do. I don't know how to handle it or what I should be doing. Every day something happens that I want to tell her about. What can I do to try to get past this? I am supposed to be going back to work tomorrow after having 2 weeks off but I don't even know if I'm ready for that. I am just looking for answers. A way that I can keep moving on with my life without feeling torn and in pain every single second of the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cindyjane Posted November 9, 2014 Members Report Share Posted November 9, 2014 Hi cb I am so sorry for your loss. I don't think we are ever ready for the loss of a loved one. It is always too soon. Grief is a tough one and there is no right or wrong way to grieve, and there are no time limits. Although time is a healer and the pain does start to lift slowing over time. I think we eventually learn how to live without that person not in our physical life and become closer to them spiritually (in our heart). I am still grieving the loss of my parents but the crying spells are still frequent and less intenence. They don't last as long because I am able to shift my thinking and feelings from sadness to feelings of gratefulness in having them as parents.I hope this helpstake careCindy Jane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
