My beloved Dad passed away nearly 7 years ago, on my birthday of all days. Even to this day I have a cry over his passing, only yesterday did I have a moment. Just the realisation of all things he has missed or will be missing.

It's strange how things can catch you. I remember, as a child, being on the bus with my Mum. She noticed there were some changes being made to a building and said "Look at that. I'll have to tell Grand-dad when we get home - he did a lot of work on that building" and then it hit her that her father had died some months before. It brings on a sudden rush of grief again.

What sad news Mojisola, I'm so sorry. I still miss my dad, who died nine years ago, and I know my mum misses him too. I hope that happy memories of your mum help you and your dad - they'll never go away.

Take care,

Wishing you strength in these difficult times ahead. My parents have been gone for a while but I can be right back in the moment in an instant. Sometimes when I least expect it.

BIG HUGS Mojisola. Very sorry to hear your sad and so unexpected news. Sounds like she had a long and wonderful life with your dad, I hope he is able to cope.

Oh Mojisola, I am so sorry to hear that, you must all be in bits. She will be in your thoughts 24/7 at the moment. It is a shock, something that will stay with you for years.

Think of it this way because there is always a positive - Not 100% sure of your age but you are so lucky to have had your mum for so long - yes?

It happened to my mum, 30 years ago now, she was just 60, just started her state pension, gave up smoking,
One day she went off to the supermarket for something for tea, had a massive heart attack and never walked through the door again.
Even now, after 30 years gone Friday I still shed a tear now and again.
No platitudes, all you can do is keep on keeping on.

Really sorry to hear your sad news, horrible to lose your mum and without doubt the worst thing I have ever been through but for her the easiest way to go and that will eventually bring you comfort. You will be in shock and it takes time to sink in and lots of things will bring back good thoughts and bad ones over the coming months. I found the support of the good people of MSE and my family and friends in real life were a great comfort when it happened to me.

I hope you and your dad manage to get through the grief and look out for each other he will be in shock too. Keep posting we are all thinking of you x
