My mum passed away 2 weeks ago and I’m finding it difficult to cope with

Hi, I'm so sorry to hear about your Mum. My Mum passed away just over a month ago, and it's hard. I find myself moving between coping well and then having really bad moments where I just need to get it out of my system. I don't think there is a right or a wrong way to deal with the loss, the pain or the disbelief and that you just have to follow your own path through the grieving process. Was your Mum ill for long? Did you get a chance to say goodbye? 

Stick around here and you will find lots of support, I promise. Have you got siblings that are going through the same thing? 

Things will get a little better as each day passes. Xx

My mum was only really ill for about a week but was only diagnosed about 6 weeks ago, also she had a fall at in between which I think didn’t help her , I was with my mum when she passed away as I had become her career. I have a brother but he had distanced him from mum . Thank you for word of encouragement and sorry to hear about your mum too xx

Hi Penguinlady, I'm so sorry for your loss, it's hard adjusting but you will get there, and this site is amazing for the support, and advice and just the comfort of knowing there is a friendly ear to talk to. 

My Grandma was diagnosed in June and had passed away 5 weeks later, I too was with her when she died, I'm wishing you all of the strength you need, everyday will get that little bit easier, I promise. 

Hope x 

Thank you for your kind words, it’s good to talk to people that have been through a similar situation as I feel sometimes friends don’t always understand what it’s like to be in a situation of some one you love having cancer x

Hi, 

so sorry for your loss.

i lost my mum 8 weeks ago I miss her so much I feel I’m living in a fog that is not clearing. I went back to work quite quickly which for me has been a great help but when I’m home I can’t even get out of bed. Not sure what to do. My family is supportive but feel so lonely.
