I had a moment this morning where I missed my mum so deeply that the pain was almost unbearable. I had a disagreement with my teenage daughter and normally I would have called my mum to discuss it but I couldn't as she passed away September 2023.
Maybe I'm feeling off kilter due to it being my first Mothers Day without her, all I know is that I'm feeling the pain of her loss so hard at the moment and all I wish I could do is to kneel at her feet as she sits her chair and put my head in her lap, to feel her stroking my head and talking to me.
Thank you for reading my ramblings xxxx
I totally agree; Mothers' Day was absolutely awful and knocked me for six as well, particularly as, up until that day, I was fine. It's awful isn't it - that pain - with the knowledge that there isn't actually a solution as such. Perhaps you just get used to coping with it.
Clearly there are lots of people here in the same situation and willing to listen, or read, and reply if it's helpful. Sorry for what you're going through and dealing with. All the best.
