I'm so sorry for your loss. What a wonderful son to care for her so completely. I think it's OK to visit her grave. I talk to my dad sometimes. It has been 10 months since he died. Something will trigger my sadness, and I cry, but I also will either talk out loud to him or just think, "Hey, dad. This makes me think of you and I really miss you a lot. I love you." I do it anywhere. To me it's like praying. I'm not religious, but was raised to be so. I don't believe in a higher power per se, but I think prayer can be very beneficial. It's not who's hearing it, but what you're saying. It's the act of doing it. Do what you need to to work through your mom's death. You had so little time to prepare for her passing. I wish you peace.

Hello momsblueeyeboy,

I just wanted to say that I know where you are coming from! I, too, lost my mom in 2004! I haven't been "normal" sense. I hate not having her around, being able to talk to her, hug her and tell her how much I love her! There are some days /i feel lije my life is over or I want to end my life so I can be with her because I hurt so much!

With this being the first Christmas with out her it just compounds the pain. Sometimes, I don't think that people really understand what I am going through. I often feel all alone and I feel like I am the only one thats going through what I have to deal with. I've got 4 other brothers but all of them seem like they have coped with the situation, but I haven't. But then again, I was the one that was closest to her. On the day that we were making the funeral arrangements everyone was asking me what I wanted to do...because I was "mom's favorite". Well I wasn't really her favorite, she didn't have a favorite she loved us all the same. But I was the one that was closest to her and was the one that always called and went to see her.

Unlike your situation I didn't have any real warning signs to perpare me for her passing. I had gone to see her 2 days before she passed away and she seemed fine. Well looking back there were some signs, but hignsight is ALWAYS 20/20. I often blame myself for that too! All I know is I want her back or I want to be with her. Call me selfish but I can't help it. I would gladly give up EVERYTHING I've got to be with her right now. Or have her back with me.

Anyway, I know that this is very longwinded but I am going to go for now. Try to enjoy your Holiday Season and if you want to cry, go for it. I know that there are sometimes I just can't hold it in, so i don't bother to try anymore. I hope that you feel better.

SIR

Gee I wish I could give you a hug in person. (((HUG))) I am sorry for your loss. I feel your sadness and long for my own to go..but unfortunately we are here to bare the pain and do what we can to stay alive. Life will never be the same again.
