I can't get my mind off the fact that I can't hug my mom today. I know that she isn't here anymore, so Mothers' day means nothing to her, but for me it means a lot.
I miss her so much....my heart is BREAKING right now.... I don't think I will get through today.....I can't....it's too hard! I just wish I was with her again. Please just take the pain away...please just take the memories of her away for one day.... Please...just take ME away!!!

 Yes, you can and you will...and she wants you to...get through today.Try to not focus on how she can't be here, how you can't hug her...and try to bring back memories that give you the warm fuzzies...and feel her spirit and presence with you.... not ones of pain but of comfort.

I try to think of all the good things, but I can't help but feel sooooo sad that she isn't here for those things anymore.
I couldn't even get to sleep til about 1am last night because of the thoughts and of missing her. I am trying....really I am..... BJ

It's OK to grieve. Cry all you have to and go right ahead and feel sad. They're your feelings and you need to honor them. Don't put any extra stress on yourself by "trying" to move on. Everyone grieves different. Of course you hurt right now. You'll move on when you're ready. The time to reflect on all the happy times will come. I understand you are sad and I'm sorry you're hurting.

Thanks for that, Orange Blossom. Sometimes I forget to give myself permission to grieve as I often feel I should be "over it" now.

no one can tell you how long to grieve hon. all the first are going to be the toughest. I wish only peace for you. remember one thing hon....your mom would not want this for you. she would want you to move on. time will make it ease up.

Yes, I agree. No one has a set time on how long to grieve. You cry and feel bad as long as you need, and know that we are here to help you and support you through it.

hon I can tell you what helped me when I lost my granddaughter. acceptance. it took months though. not til her autopsy results were back and that took 5 months. even then at certain times I would get really bad. over time it has greatly lessened. it is ok to grieve. one day you will accept that she is not suffering and hurting. she is at peace. (((hugs)))

Well, I got thru the day and even woke up....
I feel about the same as yesterday, but I am trying really hard to make it better. At least I know that I can go out today and not see Mothers' Day reminders everywhere I go! Thanks for the support. I really appreciate it so much that I have such lovely friends here! BJ
