Nine years ago today( in fact in about 15 mins time) my beloved Mum passed away after being diagnosed with lung cancer in the May. I miss her each and every day.
God saw you were suffering Mum and relieved you from your pain. But he didn't know that taking you would leave us in so much pain.
Love you Mum xxxxx

My Dad died of lung cancer too Helen, had he lived he would have been 100 this Monday. It's so hard to watch them suffer but equally hard to lose them.

Amy,

Did it occur to you that some people need the support of their GR friends, for whatever reason, whether it's because they have nobody at home to talk to, or because they know that we at GR offer care and support , it could be for any number of reasons that they post on here, but the point is that they are entitled to do so.

There's a saying...'a problem shared is a problem halved'...and I believe it to be so true.
Perhaps you deal with your problems in a different way, but we are each to our own, and if posting on here helps, then so be it.

Helen,
I'm sorry today is going to be a particularly difficult day for you. It's so difficult isn't it. Thinking of all the good times you had with your Mum will help you through. I've yet to face the first anniversary of losing my Dad.
Thinking of you,

Im an orphan....my dad died when I was a young women, mom died this May. I found out about dads death when I was at a mates house having a cuppa

Husband came in and the first words he said as he stood accross the other end on the room

'Your dads dead'................such a nice way to break the news, thoughtful an all

Anyway, dad left me a gift on that very sad day....the strength to leave that ar#ole of a husband

Your mom will have left you a gift Helen although you might not have worked out what yet

Thinking of you and sending you lots of love

thinking of everyone who has lost loved ones. My mum died october 2006 of cancer and I miss her so much, still often think to myself, "I must tell mum that she will find it funny" and then realise I cant, still talk to her though. And remember the happy times we had together as a family when we were younger.
