My mom’s fiancé died last night. I didn’t care for him (and I really tried). Her grief is breaking my heart. It’s hard to watch a loved one suffer. She has lost 2 close friends in the past 6 months in addition and she seems lost right now. Doing my best to provide comfort and keep her busy.
Sending big hugs to everyone who is struggling.  |
You and your mom are in my thoughts.
Take care of yourself, ok? It’s great that you’re so supportive, but I know firsthand that she’ll need to go through the grieving process...you can’t do that for her. Just being there will help her a lot. It’s hard to see loved ones in pain. Sometimes I’ve wanted to take that pain away from them and shoulder it myself...it’s not possible, but I understand.
PM me if you need support. I’ve been on both sides of the fence. My stepdad had a terrible time when my mom died. He was heartbroken for a long time. Now I’m grieving his death.
Here for you.
