alyssa0323 Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Hello everyone ! Today is my daughters first birthday !!! BUT this day also marks the exact day four months ago that I lost my mom. It's such a bittersweet day and all I really wish for is that my mom was here to see how big her granddaughter is and how beautiful she is. All I want is for my mom to celebrate this day with us. I miss her something fierce. I know that everyone says "she is with you, she is looking down upon you, etc" But in all honesty, I havent been finding much comfort in those words. I just want her back in our lives so very much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caren Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Alyssa (((HUGS))) Happy Birthday to your daughter...my daughter is also celebrating her Birthday today, she is 14. I know exactly how you're feeling, I would love for my dad to be here today and be celebrating with us and, no, words don't always help. Today also marks exactly 11 years since my husband lost his nan to Stomach Cancer too I'm sure that your mum is very proud of her little Granddaughter and of course of her daughter too!!!

SandraL Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Of course you wish she was there Alyssa. Interesting though that you believe your daughter was a godsend to help you through this time....what a lovely thought. As others have said, focus on her birthday and may the day pass gently.

shineladysue Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 (((Alyssa))), I'm so sorry for your pain and I have yet to find the right words to say. Be very patient with yourself and let yourself grieve, it's healing . May you create some happy memories today and, in time I hope they outweigh the sad. Hugs, Sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
