I am sorry for your losses. Grief can be so hard. My mother died in 2000 at only 53 years old. One of the reasons I entered therapy about 15 years ago was because I still could not cope with the loss. It is something I still struggle with but it is slowly getting better. B ended playing a maternal role in my life so her loss compounded my grief.
