I have always been more attached to my Dad than my Mom. Now that she is no more i miss her a lot. My Mom used to get worried about me, ensure that i have things i like to eat when i am home, buy girlie stuff for me and keep missing me when i am away. My Mom died of Cancer almost 10 years ago and i at times miss her a lot. When she was alive i never valued her much but now i have realised her worth.

I'm the opposite, I'm closer to my Mum than my Dad. I'm just so blessed that both my parents are still around. However, there's nobody quite like your Mum & I know that when her time comes I'll be devastated & I'll never really get over it.
I have every sympathy for you. They time heals, but when it actually comes to it, you're just as upset years later, if not more so, than when it first happened, you just learn ways of dealing with it.
I'm sure your Mum knows how much you love her, even if you weren't that great @ showing it. Mums find joy in the smallest of things like when you visit, phone, write, text, or welcome them into your home. Even a daft Birthday card or present. You'll be amazed @ what Mums appreciate. You realise now how much you love her & I bet you showed her in ways you didn't realise when she was around. My housemate couldn't afford to get her Mum a mother's day gift this year, but when she apologised to her Mum, her Mum said it was enough the she visited.
Don't feel bad. Mum's are great & the best way you can show your love for her now is by remembering her.

I also miss my mother she just passed away this past november and im wondering how I will get thru this mothers day with out her. Mothers do such wonderfull things for there daughters always buying them things and cooking foods they like to eat.I always shared a special bond with my mother and will miss her always.

I am really sorry to know this. Yes when we get love instantly then we used to take things for granted .. this is simple human's nature .. but when someone who is so near to us goes far - then we started knowing their real value.. I can't say more about this .. because it makes me feel sad. It'a very emotional discussion you have created.

Hi touchnshine! What is done cannot be undone. So i think i need to change my behaviour. Though my Dad treats me badly ( i married against his wishes) i make it a point to enquire about him health and visit him whenever i can. Thanks for responding to my discussion.

Hi niang03! I am sorry that you lost your mother too. I have treated my Mom very badly. I have used bad words, told lies, spit food on her and took her for granted when she was alive. Now that she is nomore i have realised her worth in my life. Thanks for responding to the discussion.

Hi grownup11! I guess you are saying that you miss your mother too. Morhers do so many special things for children that we end up missing them always when they are not around. Thanks for responding to my discussion.

yes I miss my mum as well, I was a lot closer to my dad as well, I was a daddys girl and I must admit I used to clash with my mum a lot but gee I would give anything to have them back, I really do believe no one really loves you to the extent your mum and dad love you, 100% unconditional love...

Hi lilaclady!You are right about that love part. I too often felt that my Mom was partial to my Brother and have hated her. But now that she is no more i really miss her presence in my life. Thanks for responding to my discussion.
