I am sure this is a natural part of the grieving process but I was looking for people's experiences.  We lost my beautiful Mum 7 weeks ago to secondary breast cancer and I guess I'm struggling the most with the acceptance of it.  People (who are just trying to be kind) keeping saying things such as moving on or getting back to a bit of normality etc but I just can't accept that.  I don't want to move on in any sense without my mum here so I don't know how I will ever move forward in terms of the grief.  I can't even begin to get my head around accepting it as that means she's gone Pensive

  • Hi  

    Sorry to hear about your mum, there is of course no right or wrong when it comes to greiving but sometimes it can feel a bit like we get stuck and then it might help to talk to someone. Two groups that specialise in this area are cruse bereavment care and the loss foundation.

    When I attended a friends funeral recently the celebrant said "grief is the price we pay for love" and that really struck a chord with me.
