 Morning all

I had a couple of days where I was certainly not me

I had not allowed self to cry nor grieve over Mom I guess I felt if I did it would mean she was really "gone " ya know   sad

I did go into total meltdown scaring myself Howie Cait and lil one so badly I was going to be taken to hospital

I finally came out of it and thats with the help of all of you whether you realize it or not

You are my strength and make me go on

For this and for each of you I am forever in your debt

God Bless

Lyn

I am doing so much better now that I have come to the realization that Mom is gone and wont be back that I will never see her until we meet up there once again
Now I look forward to that
No I dont want to die yet I am just happy in th fact that I will see her again
Did a Native Memorial for her which also helped me and and that was so warm and breath takingly beautiful
I know she would have approved of that for sure
So thanks to all for getting me thru such a very rough time in my life once again

Hi Lyn, you will always miss having your Mom to speak, but I'm sure you know what riches she installed in you. You have her genes and maybe her smile and the gift of love. Haven't you said your Dad sometimes mistakes you for her? I believe she still lives through you, I doubt she could have left better gifts. Take strength from her. May your God go with you.

I have been doing so much better yet my doc wants me to write Mom a letter telling her things I know I need to get off my chest
I believe he is right it will help for sure
I still look for her everywhere and think of her all the time
That too will get better
Thanks for being here for me all
God Bless

Hi Lyn. I want to say that I am thinking of you and your struggle with the letter writing and everything. I can imagine like you said already that it will be an emotionaly draining thing to do ,but once it is done you will probably feel like a weight has been lifted from your shoulders.

I would also like to add that although I dont always know how to respond to some of your posts,I do read them and I do apreciate the time and effort that you put into this board even though you have a full plate.

Thanks lyn and look after yourself :-)

 

You are so right the letter is draining but in its way it is helping me to cope with all of this ,I am also looking after my step dad who is going downhill quite fast and that really hurts like Hades........We do get thru things with my God and ppl like you and Sadra and Padraig,Rabbin Snowy lol all of you ..........Thanks again so much for being here always

I find being on this forum helps me to fulfill my love for nursing and especially geriatrics .........I saw so much in my yrs nursing and I know I need to help others if possible to keep my sanity ......

God Bless sis and be well

Luvs Lyn

hi lyn (((((((((((((((hugs)))))))))))))))))))))))

am glad you are finally letting go, it does help!!!! I remember when my dad died, it came to Fathers Day that same year, and i knew i just had to buy him a card!!!! i never did write anything in it, but knew all the same that i had to buy it for him, it did help a bit!!!

what i am trying to say is, we do what we have to for our own coping mechanisms, there is no right or wrong way to do it, everyones is different from our own!!!!

you deal with it whatever way you feel comfortable with, and just remember we are all here with you every step of the way

Came across a Christmas ornament Mom gave me at least 25 yrs ago
Brought tears of Joy to my eyes and some sadness to heart
