Thanks/I lost my Mother when I was 15, and my Father when I was 48. No matter how young, or old you are, it isn't easy There are no words that can make you feel better, but sending prayers your way anyway.
It's not selfish to hurt. You loved her. It's natural human nature to mourn lost loved ones.My mom passed away today. You think that you are prepared for a loved one's death but when the end comes, you are a basket case. I know she is no longer suffering but the selfish part of me is soooo angry and hurt.

I'm kind of late with condolences, but having lost both of my parents, I know that your sense of loss lasts quite awhile. Years later, I still get that feeling of wanting to share something - an achievement or a need for comfort - with my dad or my mom. I think we never stop missing them, it's only that the loss becomes more bearable. We begin to be less sad about and replace it with good memories. Like my dad - how he drank a bottle of beer out of the side of his mouth and how my daughter - who never met him - does the same thing. It warms me, because it keeps Dad near me - you'll find that, too.
There's a quote (paraphrased) that says we die twice - once when we take our last breath and then again much later, when our name is said for the last time. Keep your mom alive by speaking of her and enjoying your memories of her. Pass on stories about her, to honor her. I hope you find peace.

Isn't that the truth? I find qualities in my both of my sons that remind me of my dad! And my sister passed away so very young at 48, when I see her in her 3 daughters' mannerisms or looks - it's really very comforting to me now. Her legacy.
