Thank You for Your Overwhelming Support
When I wrote my last post about struggling with motivation as my mother passed away last week, I was only trying to get some thoughts and some perspective down in writing to help me cope with my own sanity.
I am overwhelmed with the responses and support I received from the WA community.
Many of the comments were about people who have had similar experiences and losses of their own. I feel for you all, but thank you for sharing and giving advice on how to deal.
I have been blessed with not experiencing a lot of grief in my life so far. Besides the loss of my husband's parents and my grandparents, I have not lost anyone extremely close to me. Of course I felt sadness for the loss of these people and I was there to support my husband and mother who felt the real grief.
I didn't expect to feel this numbness and deep sickness and wanting to cry at given moment. I know these feelings contradict themselves, but I seem to go from one emotion to another all the time.
My Mum was sick, I knew it was coming. I watched her in pain. I watched her take her last breath. I know she is at peace now. But I am struggling knowing she is gone. It doesn't seem real.
I could go on and on writing in a daze. But I won't.
I just wanted to say thank you to all those who commented with condolences and advice. It has helped more than I can say.

Hi Gail,
Those waves will come and go when you least expect it. I was at work one day, after my Mama passed, it started to snow. I went to look at it, it was so beautiful, then I began to cry. My son asked me if I was okay, I told him yes, Mama loved the snow. Just that simple memory brought a flood of tears. There are going to be times when you will break down for no apparent reason, only you know the real reason why. It's all a part of the grieving process. Don't try to hold them in, let it out. In helping you, it has helped me too. We're here for you when you need us.
So sorry for your loss:( I know exactly what you're feeling, I went through the same feelings last August when I lost my dad. He had been sick for many years, too but I didn't make it in time to say goodbye...I was enroute and missed it by 8 hrs. What you're feeling is normal. Take comfort in the fact that you were able to be there for her and that she no longer suffers.
