I've decided to share about me and losing my mum to cancer back in 1999. I don't have much to say up front, but I hope this wll be a good space to express some things that still affect me today.

It's taken me a while decide to post as it's nerve wracking to open up in any public forum, even a safe not public space like this lol.  But reading the honesty people have shared in this group has helped me give it a go..if I'm totally honest I do also feel like a bit of an imposter: posting on a bereavement group about dealing with a death that occurred 20+ years ago. 
  • Hello NPI

    Welcome to the forum, and thank you for taking the courage to reach out here. 

    I have read your short post and it feels that you have been affected deeply by the loss of your Mum, and after over 20 years you are ready to take the next step, to see if it is possible to open up, to share with others the feelings and thoughts that have stayed with you.

    My Father in Law passed in 1997, his passing had a massive impact on me, that to this day raises uncomfortable emotions.

    Please feel free to reach out again
