i'm very sorry for your loss. my mom passed away a year ago today. it does get a bit easier, but the pain is still there. for me, it's odd as i think i was in slight denial, and as more and more time passed and i didn't get a call from her, or a letter, or even got to see her, that is what made it hard for me. i try just to remember the happy times with her. maybe some things to bring her memory alive: a bottle of her favorite perfume sprayed on her dress or even pillow. a small spritz and the memories come alive, and i feel she is close to me again. **hugs**

I LOSS MY EXHUSBAND AND IT STILL HURTS LIKE THE FIRST DAY. I MISS HIM SO MUCH. AFTER 3 YEARS I'M STILL TAKING IT 1 DAY AT A TIME.

I have found that as days, min, hours and seconds go by it isn't any easier. At least not for me. My son was our sunshine in our house. But I know that I will learn to deal with it in time. I don't expect it to get easier anytime soon.
Take it one day at a time.

I'm sorry for your loss.

Hugs,
Isabel

i lost my son and poppa earlier this year. The pain may never go away but hun it will get easier it hasnt been that long u need to let yourself have some time to come to terms with it and let yourself heal. I am sorry for your loss

My Dad went 18 months ago and although they spaces in between the pain get longer, when the pain hits... and it feels physical... its just as bad. But he was my Dad, and I love him so I guess its right to feel lost without him. Give yourself the time and space you need to be the way you are. Take care.

It may not get easier as far as missing her in your life, but it will get easier to adjust to the loss in time.
For one thing, since it's only been three weeks, the shock of her sudden loss is still gripping you. For another, her young age is hard to accept, since we feel like our parents "will always be there," and she could have had many years left.
I'm so sorry for your loss, imagining our lives without our special locved ones is so very difficult. All you can do for now, is get through each day as best you can. HUggs, Rainbow

I'm really sorry for the loss of your dear Mom, and at such a young age too. You are where I was at, at 3 weeks.

My Mom also just passed away in her sleep with absoulty no warning at age 53, 3 days before her 54 birthday. To be honest I still cry a lot, and still want to pick up that phone, but around the 2 1/2 months I actually found that I could somewhat smile here and there and am slowly feeling ok to hang out with a few friends, which I didnt' want to do before, because I was afraid that I would just break down.

I too am waiting for the results STILL, which they did a toxicology report and now a histology report (microscopic study of tissues).

My heart goes out to you hun, hang in there it does eventually and very slowly get better. I never thought I'd say that, but if I can smile again (sometimes) then it's a big improvement.

What I think it important is as much as you can face your grieve and dont' stuff it, but also not to isolate yourself and much as you might want to.

))BIG HUGS((

I lost my father in a car accident 5 months ago. Many people say it will get better in time. I feel worse about it now more than ever. If you would have asked me when my father was alive how close we were I would have said Ah, we are ok. Now that he is gone I realize just how close he and I were and how many things we used to chat about that now I don't have anyone to talk with about. I miss him more than ever right now and am finding it harder now than when it first happened. I know that's not what you want to hear and I am sorry, and am sorry for your loss. It is a different kind of pain when it is unexpected. It was a normal Tuesday evening when I got the call. There was no good bye. This site has been the best source of therapy I have found.

My mom passed away on January 7th and I hope it gets easier, but right now I feel like my whole world has caved in. I know how you feel.
