I am so sorry BC... I hope you have people to support you and help you grieve. I've been there, as many of us have... it's not easy, but it's good that you are reaching out here for support. *hugs*

How can you see where you're going if you spend your whole life looking over your shoulder? Naughty Ninja
Oh honey, I'm so sorry...
No matter how old we are, it's never easy.
I know it's not much of a consolation but she saw you on your special day, and was with you all through it, and I'm sure she's very proud of you...
Hugs..
To you and your family..
Hold your husband close to you, he'll help you...

Do we not realise that in order to find a soul
It doesn't happen over night
if truth were to be told.
Like everything in life that's hard to achieve
you must believe!
I'm so sorry to hear this.
Please accept my condolences on the loss of your mother.
You and your family are in my thoughts and my prayers.
BC, I can't imagine the pain you must be going through right now.. I can only say that you and your family are in my thoughts, and you have my deepest condolences for your loss.
Most of the shadows of this life are caused by our standing in our own sunshine.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Hello BC,
I am very sorry for your loss. No words can't describe how you feel and what you are going through.
You have my sincere condolences.
Many years ago I came across a poem of Birago Diop, a Senegalese poet, which I found comforting, and quite right.
I hope your French is not too rusty...
In essence he is saying: Those that are gone are not gone, they are in the crisp of the fire, in the small noise of the water flowing,
Those that are gone, are not gone, they are in all manifestations of the Divine around us, the trees, the leaves, water, fire.
And my personal addition is to say, they continue to live in our hearts.
May our Love be a support and an invitation for them to transition smoothly from this reality to theirs...

Les Choses que les Etres
La Voix du Feu s’entend,
Entends la Voix de l’Eau.
Ecoute dans le Vent Le Buisson en sanglots :
C’est le Souffle des anctres.
Ceux qui sont morts ne sont jamais partis :
Ils sont dans l’Ombre qui s’claire
Et dans l’ombre qui s’paissit.
Les Morts ne sont pas sous la Terre :
Ils sont dans l’Arbre qui frmit,
Ils sont dans le Bois qui gmit,
Ils sont dans l’Eau qui coule,
Ils sont dans l’Eau qui dort,
Ils sont dans la Case, ils sont dans la Foule :
Les Morts ne sont pas morts.

C’est le Souffle des Anctres morts,
Qui ne sont pas partis
Qui ne sont pas sous la Terre
Qui ne sont pas morts.
Ceux qui sont morts ne sont jamais partis :
Ils sont dans le Sein de la Femme,
Ils sont dans l’Enfant qui vagit
Et dans le Tison qui s’enflamme.
Les Morts ne sont pas sous la Terre :
Ils sont dans le Feu qui s’teint,
Ils sont dans les Herbes qui pleurent,
Ils sont dans le Rocher qui geint,
Ils sont dans la Fort, ils sont dans la Demeure,
Les Morts ne sont pas morts.

Il redit chaque jour le Pacte,
Le grand Pacte qui lie,
Qui lie la Loi notre Sort,
Aux Actes des Souffles plus forts
Le Sort de nos Morts qui ne sont pas morts,
Le lourd Pacte qui nous lie la Vie.
La lourde Loi qui nous lie aux Actes
Des Souffles qui se meurent
Dans le lit et sur les rives du Fleuve,
Des Souffles qui se meuvent
Dans le Rocher qui geint et dans l’Herbe qui pleure.
Des Souffles qui demeurent
Dans l’Ombre qui s’claire et s’paissit,
Dans l’Arbre qui frmit, dans le Bois qui gmit
Et dans l’Eau qui coule et dans l’Eau qui dort,
Des Souffles plus forts qui ont pris
Le Souffle des Morts qui ne sont pas morts,
Des Morts qui ne sont pas partis,
Des Morts qui ne sont plus sous la Terre.

Oh hun....my heart aches for you in this moment. There is an emptiness, a void that feels so full of hurt right now I know and words can't express it. I don't think it can be said better than what Virgile said.
I am here. We are here. You are loved here and I hope you know that.
PM me anytime......sometimes typing your feelings just helps.
You will get through this....it is part of the journey of life....and you'll learn and be stronger for it. I hope for you peace and serenity in the coming days.

She was 47 and had never had any health problems before. It hit me like a truck. I just got done calling her brother and sister. My heart just keeps breaking a little more every min. I have never lost anyone before and I am not sure I can handle this. Her organs just began to fail this morning and by afternoon she was just dead. They said maybe leukemia but they can't be sure. I don't even know how to feel. Im so angry and heartbroken.
