Hello everyone....I lost my mother a month ago today. She was my best friend. It is weird because I am ok here and there and then some days my depression can last for 3 or 4 days at a time where all I do is cry and sleep. I love my mother and she is free from her pain and suffering (she died of colon cancer), but it was so sudden; she was diagnosed and 3 weeks later she died. I was with her the whole time and I got to take care of her and be with her and I am so thankful for that. I held her hand and watched her take her last breath. I know she is in Heaven with Jesus and she is pain free, and she is happy....but I miss my mother so much. I feel lost, empty, angry......sometimes I just want to go home and shut the whole world out.

Yes, many of us know it is hard to have a loved one leave us ---very hard. For a
Christian one knows they will meet with their loved one in Heaven (though in Heaven we will relate as great friends with all saints) ---a very happy place. Until then we need to go on happily trusting in the Lord Jesus, as our departed loved one would also want us to do. Jesus truly loves all souls, and especially those who receive and trust Him.

We just need to be sure we are going there (Jesus speaks about that in His ref. to our "mansion" -special place in John 14 ---read that chapter for a blessing).

Grieving is a process unique to everyone going through
it. All that you mentioned you are going through are
steps in the grief process. Give yourself plenty of time
to process your grief... there's no right or wrong way.

Praying God's comfort as you walk through this.

My dear mother was my best friend too, when she died, a part of me felt like it was dying, I miss her so much. It does get easier, but, you will always have that empty spot, try to think of the happy times, that can be a big help. Praying for you.
