lost my mother last week

[flipygirl]

Hello new to recovery sites and forums for that matter. I lost my mother last week, she was murdered, was at her funeral yesterday. I can't tell you how many loving people have gathered around me to love and support me. It's been such a comfort, but still feel incredibly restless, and sorrowful. She was such a wonderful woman, 62 involved in the church, giving and very kind. I miss her and I can't believe she's gone. It's hard not knowing she was going to die and wanting to be able to see her once more. Hurting terribly.:(

I'm so sorry to hear of your mother's murder. So terrible. I can honestly say that on one hand I empathize with what it's like to lose a parent. But, on the other hand, I can't empathize with the method itself.

I can only offer sincere condolences. I hope you find what you are looking for in this forum.

its been awful. My mom got married to this wonderful man three years ago. they were both shot in their bed. I think it was one of his kids. I've had to interact with this family member to plan funeral etc. it seems so bizzare and I can hardly even settle into the fact that my mom is gone

Hi flipygirl,

I hope you are still around. I have some understanding of the type of grieving you will be doing having lost my mom suddenly to suicide 3 years ago. It's pain that you wear for about 3 years from what I can tell. Then the pain turns to a scar... and the scar doesn't hurt as bad, but you always remember how bad it hurt to lose your mom.

BIG HUGS from a cyber friend.

Sorry to hear of it, Flipygirl.
I hope talking helps.

flipygirl, I'm very sorry to hear of the loss of your mother. This must be a very traumatic time for you. You probably are still in shock and in disbelief of what has happened. It's hard to put myself in your shoes, but I would imagine it's very very painful ... Do take care and my condolences to you and your family.

Hi doing better. Life continues and im learning to cope some. Can't understand all my wierd feelings and trusting in God, staying in the word. Still in shock. It's hard to believe that this could happen to me. My mom was wonderful, had no enemies and none of us are involved in illegal activity or dangerous people etc. My mom and her husband were very active members of their church. It just doesn't seem real, a nightmare that doesn't end and a new reality I have to now live with. thank you all for your prayers, I know God is holding me and carrying me cause I'm protected from dispair. If anyone knows of any good resouces i can tap into for victims of crime (christian) pls let me know.:confused:

((((((((flipgirl)))))))) Of course this is a very difficult time for you. Sounds like you had a great mother. I've been thinking of you often here and was hoping you would come back to let us know how you're doing. I'm sure people wouldn't mind if you hung out here. This is a good place to get support as well.

There must be some Christian resources out there but I don't know of any at the moment. If I see something I'll post it here for you. Others here might have some ideas as well.

In the mean time do feel free to post and share here as you are comfortable. Prayers for peace and rest for you as you go about the days ahead of you. Sincerely, Gayle
