wow, you remind me of my adult child, always pushing themselves so hard, even when bad things happen. I'm so sorry to hear about your mom, ((HUGS))

What an awful disease! Try to take care of yourself and not let your studies slip. You have the gift of precious memories of the time spent with her, though the pain will linger for a long time. I hope you have friends and family nearby to comfort you. I'm sure she'd be very proud of you for continuing your schooling. I'm sorry you lost her.

You'll need to allow yourself time to grieve. Definitely communicate with your professors and dean of student affairs. Self-care is super important. Make sure you are eating right and exercising. These two things are very difficult while going through the grieving process, but probably more important than before. Practice mindfulness and digest your thoughts. If you have any safe friends to open up to, definitely reach out to them. If you don't, send me a message and I'll do the best I can. I am familiar with feelings of emptiness, loneliness, and despair. I've been guilty of pretending to be self-reliant most of my life. But a time came that I realized it was just an illusion. Don't feel the need to get through it alone. I would think a therapist would be a good idea as well. I'm sorry for your loss.

So sorry about the loss of your mom. I know how difficult it can be. Hopefully you have other family or friends to help you through this. As someone else said, your mom would be very proud of you to finish college. You're almost there!!
My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I am terribly sorry that you are going through this very tough time right now. I want you to know that you are stronger than you think and you'll get through this. Time heals all pain. I pray that you will have the courage, strength , and mental stability to complete your schooling. Stay strong and always remember your mother is with you through spirit and memories everywhere you go.

I so sorry you lost your mom. I know you will miss her, but do everything in your life to make her proud, even if it's hard right now, she is pulling for you.

I am so very sorry for your loss. It can be so hard, we have daily contact with somebody and watch them fade; sometimes slowly sometimes quickly. Then they are gone.

Knowing yourself and how you deal with things is important. By all means focus on school and graduate. Putting the grieving process on hold is OK, it does not carry any hidden disrespect or lack of caring. I'll bet dollars to donuts that your mom would tell you the same thing.

Gentle hugs

There is a bereavement group here, please look us up if you are interested. We have members who have all sorts of losses

I am sorry for your loss. I am glad you are finishing up college. Hugs and hang in there.

Make graduation day a tribute to your mother that will give you more motivation to keep going and push through this semester. And I'm sure that is as with any mom something she truly wanted for you. You can do this

I am so sorry for your loss. It is very difficult to lose a parent! It's easy in the midst of grief to want to stop everything, but all those things can help during the process of grief, so I am so glad to hear you are continuing with your studies despite how difficult it is. As a mom, I can tell you that I would want my children to continue to pursue their goals and dreams. I wouldn't think it was disrespectful at all, in fact, quite the opposite for them to be strong in the midst of grief. That said, I know how hard it is as I've lost both my parents. Do you have a support group, siblings, close friends to go to during this time, especially as the grief is so fresh? I am praying for sweet comfort in those around you as well as in the memories you have of your precious mom.

I am so sorry for your loss. It sounds like you are a very caring person who gave her love during the last years.
