I am so sorry to hear about your loss.  Whatever you do - do something.  No matter how insignifcant whatever you do may seem to you at the moment - it will mean more than you can imagine to the family.  They understand the distance in miles associated with this loss.  God bless you and yours at this time!

Oh, I'm so sorry to hear about your Mom, but I think your response to honor her memory is awesome. Yes, it's quite normal, even after all the years have gone by. I just lost my Dad last month and I feel that he touched my life like nobody else ever could. I hope to feel that same way forever too. Memories are meant to cherish. Your Mom was lucky to have a devoted daughter like you. I think when we lose a parent it's a gap that no one else can ever fill. And it's important to pass along those memories and traditions to our children.

Dear Vickki, I am assuming you have lost someone dear to you in death? I am sorry for you pain. I know the days often seem so long. God does not promise us a life without difficulties and sorrow. He does promise his grace, his mercy and his endless love. It is so hard to understand but someday we will! I hope you can find comfort in knowing you will see your loved ones again. Think about all the wonderful times you had with this person while they were here on this earth. Thank God for blessing your life with their life. By thanking God, you will find the most amazing comfort. Peace will come and you will be able to go on. Hold on to the  the memories and treasure each end every one. I will pray for you and that your pain will be eased. God Bless!

Wow!!!  Don't know what else to say.  I lost my 18 yr old in June, 2005.  And my mother 10 days after him in June, 2005.  And I thought I was having it BAD!!!  I guess that old adage that my mother used to say is true.  "There's always someone who has it worse".  I am sooo sorry, that I don't know what to say.  All I can do is to tell you that I am on yahoo messenger, as americanhousewife2005 and my email is americanhousewife2005@yahoo.com...I'm truly there for you to talk to!!!

I just lost mine 2 days ago and I hadn't seen her in 11 yrs. I had left my home country and have not gone back since then. Also I am not able to leave right now to attend the funeral, it is tearing me up so much.  I feel your pain and understand where you are in this.  As hard as it may seem we simply have to think of the good times in memory and how much joy she brought into our lives.  Life is never the same when your mother passes away, however you must go on.  Maybe you can do something together with family that will keep her memory alive.

My da died when I was 15 and I wish I had know the information in the site below. It is to late for your mom but not for others. I have helped many since I have learned this info because nobody should have to live with the medical injustice going on today!

I'm sorry for your loss, many Holidays must be very difficult for you. If you don't feel this is too strange , when you go to visit her on Mothers Day bring a blanket with you and just sit there for a while. My Dad died when I was 13 months old, so when I need to feel closer to him, I take a warm summer day {Hopefully Mothers Day will be warm} a blanket, maybe a book or photo album and visit. Its amazing how peaceful it might make you feel. I'm sure she loved you very much and I'm very sorry your still so sad. I hope the rest of your family is a support to you. Take care and best of everything to you.

My grandmother dropped dead peeling potatos at 63 years old from an anuerysm in her heart. My mother and her only sister had brain anuerysms at the age of 45.(They were both 45 years old.) My aunt died within 24 hours. My mother lived because hers started to actually seal itself closed. She had brain surgery and was in an induced coma for a month after surgery. \nYou can email me by clicking on my profile and going to my profile page. I won't give out my email address here because I was turned in for "chatting and personal whatever" it is that you receive a violation for........I will be glad to answer any questions you might have...................

I was 40 when my mom died. Today I'm 46 and still every once in a while I become very sad and even cry on occasion.  You were only 8 and you are now only 15.  The point I am trying to make is that the death of someone very close to us is difficult no matter our age at the time. But when you are a child you really don't understand all that is happening. Now as you mature and approach your adult life there are probably some issues about your grandfather and/or his death that were unresolved.  When you were 8 you were not prepared to deal with them.  Now you are able to and so your mind is letting them come up again. Our minds are strange things sometimes at night they dream things that scare the hell out of us. At other times they protect us from the things that really will hurt us.  I know that this is troubling for you and feel you need professional help to deal with it. Like others before me, I suggest you seek that help. Your parents and your doctor are good places to start.\n\nHope this helps you and Good Luck!

My father died 19 years ago this September. I was 14 year old. We talk about him often but only in fun stories. The 1st anniversary of his death my family including my mom's sisters and my cousins came into town. \nAfter that the years following they did not. I think it was they way my family does it. If that makes sense.\n\nIn answer to your question is I remember my friends and what they did. they called me to let me know they were thinking of me. They did not say I am here for you but just called to say hi like it was any normal day. If I wanted to talk about with them I did if not I didn't. I did it both ways.  but knowing my friends were thinking of me helped. Remember not to say oh how are you doing today. Just call them or if you feel comfortable go over and say hi stick around but also know when to leave. Ask your mother a lady always knows when to leave.\nThe ironic thing about my fathers death day was when I found out I was pregnant I told the doctor that there was one day he could not choose for my baby to be due and that was the day. we fibed to my family and friends and told them the baby was due the day before the anniversary of the day he died. my doctor remembered that I did not want my baby born on that day and he told me that he wanted to induce me so I did not have to be reminded. Isn't that neat that he remembered I did not even have to ask and he was a very bust doctor.\n\nGood Luck and I am sorry for your loss it does get better.

I am! And so is my cousin......born on the same day but different years. She accuses me of stealing her birthday. I don't think the date is unusual but I believe that more people have summer birthdays because their parents planned it. Really, people say that. Kinda weird....

I was one of the lucky ones.  There were 4 of us born at Fort Devens Army Hospital in Shirley Massachusetts.  Growing up I would celebrate 1 day with family and 1 day with friends.  If there was a 29th then I'd get 1 day only.  Now it seems like it doesn't matter if there is a 29th or not, my birthdays seem to last for a week.  I have had my ID torn up because the bouncer thought it was a fake.  He said there was no Feb 29.  The bar paid for a new ID.  The fun part is when I can say my kids are older than me.  By the way...I turned 10 1/2 this year.  I'll be 11 in 2008.  I sometimes get gag gifts from people.  Like when I turned 6 (24) I got a barbie doll and a card for a 6 year old.  All in all, it's just another day though.
