First mothers day without my mum

[foxyknoxy30]

That's it really she passed away early January and just miss her so much ,sometimes I just struggle to accept my future without her

I’m sorry op. I lost DM in 2016 and still think about her everyday. I can’t say the grief goes away but it gets more distant and you learn to live with it. Have you got siblings to talk about her with?

Sorry to hear that op. You are still grieving so no wonder you feel this way.

Your mother was fortunate to have you as her child and be loved and missed so much.

You know that she would be upset at your feeling so down and she would want you to go through life embracing new adventures.

Have you thought about making a memory book? Something where you can place photos and write anectodes of fond memories so that in times of despair you can turn the pages and feel comforted by the phot os of her and the lovely things you have written about her.

I’m so sorry @foxyknoxy30

Look after yourself today.

@foxyknoxy30 - I know how you feel. My mum died last month and I still can’t believe it’s real. Today is a very hard day. I’m just taking it one day at a time.

I also know how you are feeling. This is the second year for me.
Hugs and

So sorry . It’s all still very recent. Look after yourself.

Feeling the exact same way as you are today. No words of wisdom I'm afraid but I know how you feel

I lost my mum in September, so I also understand what you are going through. Christmas was the worst as my mum was religious and Christmas was always a big deal when I was growing up, and I always made an effort in the last few years cos she was ill.

I feel lost today and I'm looking forward to DP getting back in from his weekend away so I can not have to parent!

and to minicat79 and everyone facing a difficult day today.

I’m sorry for your loss 💐

MIL passed away recently and DH is really struggling today.

I lost my mum 11 years ago and it does get a bit easier it never goes away.
Look after yourself today....be sad if you want to be.

for OP and everyone trying to get through today without their mums.

I lost my mum in September. Today feels empty, even though I have my own little children, I still want my mum

Hi
I lost my mother yesterday. She was very elderly but it was still quite unexpected . DH lost his mother in November so as a family we are not having the best mother's Day.

DS (14) bless him bought me a lovely card and present and I managed to burst into tears on opening it. Luckily he is old enough to know why and to hug me in his awkward teenage way

I .sorry OP, it does really suck

I’m so sorry everyone. My mum passed away in December so this is the first without her. I didn’t think I would be quite so upset as she never wanted a fuss on Mother’s Day as her birthday was also in March so she only ever requested a card, but I have had more tears this morning than I had imagined.

My mum died end of Jan, but she left when I was 4 and remarried and became a pillar of August, just not a very good mum to me.

DH (only child) lost his mum two years ago, so highlight of out day is going to the crem to lay flowers and think.

DS1 (13) had decided to ignire today, DH even bought a card to give to me and he hadn't burgers. That hurts more than losing my mum. Going out for tea with step mum and family, DS1 is saying he's not coming, it he doesn't want to embrace today would rather him not there.

Have always hated Mother's Day

and for those who need them today

So sorry OP

Mother’s Day is another of those difficult anniversaries.

Thinking of people that have lost their mums and mums that have lost their children.

Take it easy and get throughout the day the best you can.

I lost my Mum in September and I feel awful because my little ones have made such an effort but I cant stop the tears.

to all who are missing thier dms today . It's also my first mothers day without dm. Have just had a coffee and cake in john lewis in her honor ( it was her favourite place to meet up). I did wonder what other patrons thought as I was having a bit of a moment! .

All of you who are missing your mum's, try and rejoice in having had a lovely mum. You have memories of a good relationship, and you have someone to miss.

Thank you so much for your kind words means a lot ,thinking of everyone going through the same it's hellish, got a nice afternoon planned with kids but the heartache rumbles in the background

It’s shit. So sorry for your loss
