Death of a Parent
mom at eighty
Comments:
Claire, I know what you're going thru.. My Mom lived in Miami, Florida and I live in Rockingham, NC.
She passed in Oct of 2005. I talked to her everyday almost for the first year. I felt so alone, even thought I have a grown family of my own (mom was 76) I still felt isolated and alone and felt no one could realize my pain,
Well I am telling you it does get better, I know Mom is up there and I know she can hear me and even though I still want to pick up the phone and call her every Thursday (that was our routine) it has gotten better. Not great mind you but better....
If you want to talk I am here.

10 years ago I lost my dad. You never stop missing them but the pain does ease. Hang in there. It will get better.
All the time. Many times when I say something out load I would've said if she were here, ends up being something she would've said to me. I'd like to think our loved ones are very much here in spirit. The single one
spirit that God has created has always existed from the very begining is very much here and alive.
I lost my Mother May 7 2009 ,
I have the same heartaches, did yours ever go away?
it hurts at times I have to hold my head
if I cry it hurts so bad I can't stand the pain
I lost my Father Nov 24 2008 ( 6 moths ago)
Did you feel it was just a bad dream, when I wake up I have to tell my self it's real she gone,
it's just like the day she died.
what hurts is the Doctors over dosed her, she just went to sleep
she would still be here, Her Birthday is June 11
She lived in Ind, I live in Tn.
I will keep you in my prayers.
yes, i feel the presence of others who are not with me in person. it is special. mostly my grandmother who is alive, but far away. i felt the presence of my other grandmother after she died--i felt it strongly while i was worried and it seemed that she was letting me know she was happy. since then i have not felt it knowingly. but i always am happy when i think of her, and i look forward to seeing her again someday in some way or another :-)
your other question: from experience, my conscience heartache (from loved ones passing away) passed with care and time, but deep down you may always notice something, but you get used to it and you find that even though it is sad, it is love, so it finds a home in your heart and you may not notice it as a "heartache" later.
