I miss my mum

[beebee25]

My mum died in 1993 when I was 24. I'm now 56 and in tears because I miss her so much. I don't remember her voice..I loved her so much
. She was my world. How can I still be feeling so sad after so long. She never knew my son which breaks my heart. I saw a recent thread where parents have lost their children and I can't even imagine that pain which I is so so much worse then how I'm feeling. I'm so jealous of my work friend whose mum lives round the corner from her and has been there during her children growing up. My dad died 8 years ago in really tragic circumstances and I don't feel anywhere near the grief I feel for my mum. I just want one more day with her

I miss my Dad desperately and would faint with joy at the idea of seeing him again. My mum less so and I feel guilty about it but I had a very close relationship with Dad and felt we understood each other often without words needed.

24 is so young. So much of your life deprived of a special relationship and she has not been able to share joys and tougher times. It's a loss and you will still feel it

Yeah I’m nearly 60 my mum died when I was 10, I can’t remember her voice either. The pain has never left. I feel for you.

I lost my Mum in 1981. I'm 65, I miss her every day.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I lost my mum at 26. My mum always said that you live on through your children. I bet you do things like she did all the time and so does your son. So she lives on that way

I am so sorry for your loss
Grief doesn't have a time line
I miss my mum she's still alive but due to an awful situation my dsis has created over money opg adult social services and police are involved I don't see either of them anymore I miss them both
I miss my dad which is silly as he died when I was 18 months old so I don't remember him but I wish he was here to help me deal with my family situation I now often visit his grave to update him on what my now adult dc his gc he never met are doing

Sweetheart, am sending you love. When someone you love dies, your heart yearns for them forever.

There is no timeline for grief OP. It stays with you. I lost my dad 12 years ago just after a falling out where he told me he didn’t want to speak to me again and I feel a huge amount of hurt and rejection but I miss him dearly (we were really close up until that point).

Hes missed my wedding, the birth of all my children, my career, everything. It hurts so much that I try not to think about it

She must have been a fantastic mum. I'm so sorry you've had to spend so long without her. I hope her memory also brings you moments joy.

Sending you so much love and hugs. Losing a mother who was your best friend is one of the worst things that can happen to you, it is an eternal heartbreak. I lost my dear mama two weeks after my 22nd birthday. Like you, she never got to meet my child. Years on, I get triggered by a sense and then I'm right back to remembering those painful final days by her side as she slipped away and there was nothing I could do but watch my best friend transcend into another ether. Life can be unimaginably cruel. I'm right there with you and I just wanted to share that you are not alone and I hope that gives you even a little bit of comfort. ❤️

My mum died when I was 14 months old.
The pain of the loss has got worse,strangely, over the years. I'm now in my 70's and still cry as I am now. Inexplicable really.

Thank you...I very much appreciate all your comments and feel much better today.
