Have you have lost someone you love'd?

I'm 23 and my mum passed away on April 15th from Cancer, we had no idea how serious her condition was until a couple of days before, and she was only diagnosed in January. Plus to top it all off, I'm getting married next weekend (2 days after what would have been her 51st birthday) and I'm finding it very hard to come to terms with the fact that she won't be there. \n\nIt's been so hard and I've had so many mixed feelings of guilt, regret, sadness and loneliness, but I think the key is talking to people and don't bottle it up or it will make you ill. \n\nI've had a lengthy conversation with my dad which has helped me loads and the silly thing is we're closer now than we ever have been. \n\nWhat you need to remember is time heals all wounds, and although I will find my wedding incredibly difficult, I know she would have wanted it to be the happiest day of my life and I'm sure she'll be there in spirit. \n\nI hope this has helped, especially to let you know there are others feeling the same feelings you are - just remember you're not alone and your father will always be watching over you.

My mother passed on 3-17-01. My dad passed on 3-18-01. They were buried on 3-20-01. They divorced in 1959 and never saw each other again. Not a day goes by  without them in my thoughts. I think only of the good memories and although I miss them terribly, I have accepted it for what it is.  I had them for 46 years and now God has them for eternity. No one can tell you how to grieve, but time is a great healer. You`ll be fine. A Friend.

Did you know the woman personally, or anything special about her (hobbies, collections, etc., especially ones you might share)?  If so, you might want to throw in a happy memory or something like that.  If not, his thought that YOU thought enough to send  condolences will probably serve.

I am very sorry for you loss. Each person grieves differently and for various times. As each days passes it will hopefully get easier for you. Take care and I will keep you in my prayers.

I'm so sorry you've lost someone important to you.  I've been there before myself.  Tomorrow will be the first anniversary of my mother's death in a hospice.  She suffered so much before she died that it tore my heart out, but she's with her Lord and Saviour now, and happy at last.  Time will improve things for you.  It's the only thing that helped me.  Try to do things you enjoy to distract yourself from the pain.  Even that can take a great effort, but you have to keep trying. If you do, I promise you that things will get better as time moves on.  May God Bless You!

It is a sad thing to loose a parent.  It leave a mark on you and a pain that you really never get over.  I happen to be a funeral director and when I lost my parents, I went through the exact same thing.  I know it is of no comfort to you, but as time goes by, you will find that other things in your life keep you occupied.  You will never forget her, but in time God works a miracle in which the sharp pain associated with your loss gets a little less and you can reflect upon the joyous and happy times with a feeling of love and appreciation.  I know you probably find this hard to believe, and so did I, but it does happen.  My father died in 1987 and my mother in 1999, and at times is seems like it was only yesterday.  I hope you are able to find peace and understanding very soon.

wwell honey i hate to tell you this but you will never " be over it" i mean eventually you will be able to think about it without crying everytime and you will have days where you dont think about them and that stuff but the pain never goes completly away because the love never goes away. just know that they are in a better place. and trust in God. he will help you and know that other people are mourning the loss of that person and they would want you to be happy. hope this helps. God bless you

I have not lost a parent. I have lost a brother. We were approx. 12 months apart in age. He died drinking and driving when I was 20 and he was 19. I was devastated, but never cried about it. He and I had talked about death but not our own. There isn't a day goes by I don't think about him. I am sad, on the inside, but not depressed. I can talk about him with great pride and conviction without crying a drop. And about the loss..... is there anyway to describe the feeling of emptiness and loss? No, but we can not dwell on what we can not change. I do know that my life would be completely different if he were here. I moved 1000 miles from home, just to get away from the sadness, it didn't help. But it did change the whole direction of my life. I will not say that it is a mental illness to have feeling like this, but it is very difficult to express the way you truly feel. I try not to talk about it but feel better when I do. His birthday was last week 10/25. Mine is today.

My husband.  He's still here, but he's unavailable.  He got sick and is depressed.  Nothing seems to help.\n\nHow do you grieve someone who sits across the table from you?\n\n(Thanks for answering my question.  When I read your question and answered it, I knew I needed to ask mine.)

I am so sorry for the loss of your sister and great grandson. How deeply heartbreaking. I lost my 18 yr. old daughter, Jill, in a car accident on August 2, 2002 and her birthday is coming up on March 14th. I have a memorial site for Jill and it has lots and lots of poems on several of her pages. Some of them are copyright that were written just for me and my daughter and others are not.  You are welcome to visit Jill's memorial site and especially look on her birthday and anniversary pages and you are welcome to highlight and copy them.  As long as they were not written exclusively for me and my daughter, you are welcome to use any of the poems you would like.  If you have any questions, or need further direction on finding poems, please feel free to e-mail me at peggyrose011058@aol.com.  God bless you and my prayers are with you, Peggy (myangeljill)

I can tell you that time will lessen your pain, but you will never forget the person.  I still have a place in my heart for my first love, and while I don't cry over him or technically still "love" him, I will always remember him.  \n\nTime will make it better.  I promise. :)

Please know that you are in my morning prayers.  I know your pain over your losses seem unbearable, but remember that He is holding you up, and even when you don't feel Him, that is when He is closest!  It took someone else's pain to remind of that this morning and I hope and pray as you grieve your loss that you can keep that thought in your mind.  It was explained to me that we have at least forty thousand thoughts a day, and that if you can keep those thoughts positive, your body and emotion will respond.  What a man thinks in his heart, so is he, right?\n\nMay God help you thru this time, may you keep your eyes toward heaven, may God use your grandchild to bless you for years to come, and may He help you raise her in grace and gratefulness for the opportunity to serve your daughter's memory.  Father, please enable a good report from the Drs to encourage this sister in the Lord thru her trials.  May she see many blessings thru her call for prayer, strentgthen her faith and trust in You as she walks the same path we all must take for your names sake. Amen.

Iknow all about it and I think it was better for me to have loved and lost him. Though I think of him every day I know if I hadnt felt the love of my life time then I would never have felt it. I htink i will never find anything like it but at least I can hold onto it and hope he comes back by some mericle. He left for iraw telling me he couldnt see me b 4 he left cuz he loved me and wouldnt be bale to go. I told him i would never forgive him if he did that to me and he said he hope i would understand someday and that day came to late. i lost him so quick

~~so very sorry to hear of your loss.   there is NOTHING harder than loosing a child.  I lost a child, not to sids, but my ex beat me and i lost my daughter.  people tell you things like, it will get easier with time, but it has been more than 20 years and i still think about my daughter.  if you are looking for a support system, or need someone to chat with about your child or your loss or your fears, click on my avatar and add me to your messenger, i'm a good listener.~~
