I’m so sorry for your loss Tam but relieved your mum is now pain-free. Please be gentle with yourself.
 
Sorry to hear of your loss Tam, but you helped her to pass at home where she was comfortable. That is a big plus you and your sister should be proud of. She went quickly and did not linger in pain. Again be thankful. My mother died last December after a very similar journey. I don’t remember the pain of her dying now, I just remember her as she was. You will do the same. Thinking of you.

My mum did exactly the same Tam, I sat with her for a month for 12/14 hours a day. She bloody waited for me to leave before she slipped away. It broke my heart that I was not there but I have come to accept that.
Sorry Tam but mums now out of pain and resting peacefully, she will always be watching over you and the pooches x
 
Deepest condolences Tam, and sincere apologies for my ill timed pm.😔🙏

Of course it has.
There's nothing that you need to say.
Of course there's usually someone about here at all hours if you want a blather.
 
Had a rotten night... couldn't sleep much , I can't really describe myself how I feel just now ..looking at stuff online this is pretty close

It's weird how the world just goes on and it seems to be unnoticed, I feel like I need a badge that says I'm in pain ..be kind. I can't sit around doing nothing so I'm trying to just do stuff as normal but even walking the dogs it's like I'm not there , in the garage getting 2 tyres on my car at the minute as the front ones have been bald for weeks now, I'm going back to work tonight as otherwise I'm just sitting on my own thinking about stuff.


I'm annoyed at will as his timing to end things is really shit , but at the aame time I think he wasn't the person I thought he was when he bailed at the first sign of things not going smooth.


I feel like I'm carrying a slab of concrete in my chest and the slightest thing has me tearing up.

Funeral is likely to be at least 3 weeks away which is also crap , I feel ill only be starting to pull myself together by then only to have the wound re opened.


I'm going to go visit my dad's grave when I leave the garage as I've not been in a while and that's where mum's going too.


I just hate the thought of her in that funeral parlour for 3 weeks .

We have an appointment on Tuesday to go make the arrangements.
 
Only just caught up but guessed from 5 pages in 24 hrs something had happened.
Like everyone else incredibly sorry for your loss, keeping busy isn't a bad idea.
It's amazing how invested you can be in someone you haven't met.
 
So sorry for your loss Tam, your Mum is at peace now and both you and your sister have done everything you can to make her final days as comfortable as possible. This is a great community on here and we are all thinking of you at this difficult time so please try not to feel alone ❤️‍🩹
 
Tam I really feel for you as I am sure everyone following this thread does. There will be s**t days and some will be even s******r days but very slowly the dark clouds will lift and the hole in your heart will reduce but it will always be there because a part of you has gone and it will always be sad. Eventually you will come out the other side of this grief and one day you will find yourself smiling, even laughing at something your Mum would have said or done. Take things one day at a time and remember it’s okay to not be okay. Thinking of you and your family and sending love and hugs. xx

Woke up wondering how you were Tam.
I remember the feeling of waking up the morning after and the few seconds before the realisation struck that things would never be the same again. The feeling of loss never goes but over time it becomes less frequent and less overwhelming.
Going back to work is a good idea I think.
I’m sorry it’s 3 weeks to the funeral - that is 2 weeks too long.
 
I am sure you will find the stages of grief if you google it. Nothing you feel at the moment is right or wrong - it is your reaction to your situation.

My advice would be to allow yourself to wallow for a while until you work it all out. Don’t push yourself too hard. No-one can judge you or tell you how you should feel.

It’s good to be busy and good to talk. Don’t bottle it all up. And don’t be scared to shed a tear, big boys do cry. 👍
