Members Strangefate Posted October 21, 2017 Members Report Share Posted October 21, 2017 I lost my mother this week to a sudden heart attack. She was in her 70s and yet it was very abrupt with no little to no warning signs. I was talking to her that morning and then that same evening the EMTs were unable to get a pulse back. I was there when it happened, am the one who called 911 and attempted to do CPR until the paramedics arrived. We were very close, and I feel like I can't stop crying. My father is also in his 80s and she was his only companion and now I'm intensely worried about him as well. I just badly need someone to talk to who empathizes and have no one like that in my life. I just feel like there's a great emptiness inside me now and I don't know how to begin repairing it, especially with the holidays approaching, which was a time of year she enjoyed the most.

Members sadandlost Posted October 21, 2017 Members Report Share Posted October 21, 2017 Dear Stragefate, I'm so sorry for your loss. We all know how painful it is because we are all going through it. Its 9 months for me and it isn't better than it was. I get on with the day but I feel sad all the time, so I understand. I don't have anyone who even asks how I am. After a month, everyone disappears and forgets. I feel completely alone so I know what you're going through. I'm really sorry for your father too. it's got to be brutal for him. I hope you live close by to him? I'm so sorry. Know we are hear to listen to your words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
