    About Me

    I just lost my mother, my best friend...how do I live w/o her? My mother, best friend. A very brief & deadly pancreatus she gave her life up to. Sun.1-14, she passed away in her sleep at home.My one sis, my Dad and I were there.It is so hard to realize she is gone, she didnt suffer, was very healthy up til the end. Its so hard to go day to day & not see her.The cancer just ate away at her so quickly.I feel so sad, lost, alone w/o her, we did everything together.I still have my Dad here with me, but it is so hard to cope. I thought I would have dreampt about her, or felt her near, but I don't which makes me even sadder.Life is so difficult. Why she got it, I guess only God knows the real answer.

      Hi Hon- I am so sorry for the loss of your Mom. I lost my Mom in October of last year. She was my best friend, we were soul mates. So, I undertand exactly how you feel and how you feel at a loss. I started a group here at DS for women like us who have lost their Moms. It is full of loving and supportive women who are going through the same things you are. I really think you will find support with us. Here's our site page: http://dailystrength.org/groups/mo... I hope to see you there and get to know you better. I am so very sorry about your Mom. It is the worst feeling in the world. Love-Holly

      I am like a water faucet, the tears can flow and flow and then stop and I feel nothing, numb.
      Grief Counseling Considering
      Havent tried yet, I still consider it sometimes.
      Prayer Too Soon to Tell
      I pray everyday, everynight, for some kind of answer.
      Support Groups Working / Worked
      Knowing that there are others out there that feel your apin and know EXACTLY what you are going thru does help.
      Reading Somewhat Helpful
      I am starting to collect so many books, I may soon have a library. I have books on dealing with grief, Heaven Books, John Edward & james Van Praagh.
      Meditation Too Soon to Tell
      I only have begun to meditate. I hope this works so that I may gain a greater spiritual connection & experience greater levels of inner peace.

      Writing in the DS journal, your feelings and messages to Mamma. I also have another private journal that I write to my Mamma in the hopes that God will let her read it.

      My pets are like my children, they are my children, they sense when I am happy or sad. Hannah and Holly are my life and have helped me a lot. I thank God for them.

      A deadly cancer causes much grief. I found out my Mamma had it, AFTER she passed. After Cmas 06 and the New year,she started not to feel well,thought it was a virus;blood work was done,etc,& they thought it was liver cancer. It was a fast growing tumor,stage 4,She NEVER smoked,drank.
