I still miss mom and think of her every day and she has been gone 17 months. I still have her numbers programmed which I won't delete. I buy flowers that she would like every so often just for me to look at. I have some good days now but life will never be the same. Wishing you some peace. Sharon

Hi Donna --
I lost my mother a year ago March 10, and a day doesn't go by that I don't think of her. We were such a huge part of each other's lives, and it's hard to forget that she's no longer here. I'm very fortunate to have spent 54 years with her, and have many happy memories to hold on to. I, too, feel her presence every day and that gives me comfort. I am confident that she and all the other mothers that we love and miss are watching over and guiding us. I agree with Sharon -- life will never be the same, but somehow through the tears and sorrow we will eventually find peace and happiness. Take care -- Cathy

It was just 19 months and I miss my mom so bad. I just want her back. Everywhere I go and everything I see or do,reminds me of her. I can't even listen to Elvis Presley without crying for my mom. She loved his music.

Bless you Donna

Its 29 months for me this end, and i feel the same......i still haven't accepted she has gone, it just doesn't feel nor sit right.Am yearning for her so very badly.

Rachele, my mum also loved elvis....we walked into the church following her playing 'love me tender', then on leaving to go outside again follwing her to the song, 'the wonder of you'.

Sending you both and everyone thoughts over from me.

Donna,
I would imagine that's perfectly normal. Altho, I'm only at 7 months, I miss my mom every single day. She was such a huge part of my life, and I still feel a bit lost without her. Like Sharon, I too, still have her number programed into all my phones, will never take it out. And next week I'm going with my gf on vacation to Las Vegas, and it feels so weird. All my vacations have always included my mom- going up to visit her in RI, taking her up to Maine to visit my son and his family -and this will be the first one without her. It's going to be bitter-sweet.

I think you will always miss your mom, and feel like she's near you. I feel that to and I consider it a blessing.

Hugs,
Carol

I still miss my mum dreadfully and it will be 30 yrs this year since she died but i know deep down that shes still about watching over me my kids and now my grandkids and i know she always will be there as will your mum pet.Only differance now is that we cant see her.Take care if you need to talk im here

I understand completely. I am missing my Mon too and it's been 17 months. I think about her several times an hour...and often break down and just sob. I yearn to talk to her...I lost my best friend. I do have a good day here and there, but the further I progress into my pregnancy, the more alone, miserable and isolated I feel without her. The loss is immeasurable. Life will never be the same. Love-Holly

Thanks for the comments, reading them I realize that it's not abnormal to feel this way a year later. I just wish I had kids or other family with me to bring me some comfort. I was looking at some of the things still in her room, I haven't gotten rid of anything, and it made me realize how deeply I miss her - I cried all night. It doesn't feel like it's been a yr, she still feels near me at times, I play her favorite movies on video sometimes and wonder if she can see or hear it.

I lost my mom April 13 last year, I'm almost at that year point, and I am still trying to accept the fact that she is gone forever. Lately it's been on my mind more, I'm finding it hard to sleep, and I also miss her every day. Good Luck, I understand.

I lost my mother less than a month ago... I miss her everyday.... I want to call her, see her, bring her gifts and I simply can't... that breaks my heart everyday! Believe we are here to support and understand you!

Biggest hugs,

Katara

I totally understand. It has only been 3 months for me so the feelings I have are very intense. That is a great thing that you feel her nearby. Take comfort in that.
