Mom Died - Need A Friend To Talk To

Hello....This time two weeks ago I posted a note saying that we discovered the nsclc had spread to my Mom's brain.  I needed advice on hospice, etc.  I assumed we had lots of weeks to figure everything out.  Mom was happy, shopping with me, and going out to eat.  She was weak, but fine.  Today is one week since she died, it happened so fast that my head is still spinning.  The memorial is over, the household items are sorted and donated, and we will bury her ashes in two days.  I do believe that a freight train of pain is headed my way.  Can anyone talk to me?  It would be a great comfort.  Thank you everyone and God bless all of you going thru whatever stage of this horrible journey you happen to be in today.

I am so very sorry for your loss.  I know that cancer is painful and slow or fast it sucks. We just have to trust our loved ones are Best with God.

We are Blessed that they shared our life and a True Gift from God.

I pray He will be with you,

I am so sorry to hear about your loss.  My mom passed away 2 1/2 months ago.  Still, it seems so surreal.  I still cry alot.  I miss her so much and still can't believe it.  I just wished it was just a bad nightmare.   talking to other people on the board has helped. and imagine talking to her as though she is next to you also helps.   It was really hard for me the first week she passed away.  as time flies by, your pain is lessened.  I had all this hope for her but am now very pessimistic that there is any hope for cancer patients.  If you need to talk, remember we are all here for each other.

My mother passed on September 29.  It is by far the hardest loss for me, and I think for you too.  Hang in there.  I feel the freight train of pain too

I have just stumbled upon this site in search for info about GBMs as my father-in-law has recently been diagnosed. However, this thread caught my eye and I had to reply. I can truly say I can feel your pain and I am so very very sorry for what you all are going through right now. I lost my mother to cancer 19 years ago and it still burns in my heart. I wish you all strength and peace as you journey through this difficult time of mourning. Remember that grieving  is a journey, it doesn't get easier, just different. Best wishes to all. Take care.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss.  I totally understand as my Mom passed away on February 13th.  She had only been diagnosed in October for pancreatic cancer.  She had a whipple surgery in late November.  We had so many high hopes.  Unfortunately the radiation and chemo weakened her resistance and she got an infection.  She died of sepsis three weeks ago.  The pain of her loss is unbearable to me.  I adored her and I can not imagine life without her humor, sparkle and deep love and affection.  The world is just a little less bright without my Mom here.  It all feels so unreal. I DO know how you fell.
