I lost my mother 14 monthes ago. It seems like I can not seem to shake it. My brother is about to be 15. I am only 26 and I was 7 1/2 monthes pregnant with my baby girl that my mother will never get to meet. I feel alone and depressed 1/2 the time and not sure how to shake this feeling of being alone. When my grandparents die I will feel completely cut off from my mother as they are my link to her in a way

I lost my mother in 1989. I was married for only a year and a half then. At the time I was devasted as also my sister and father. With time the pain reduces but never goes away. How can a part of your life go away. You just learn to go on with life - what else can you do? Earlier, each and everything would remind me of her and bring tears to my eyes, now I can remember her and the good times without crying. That does not mean that I miss her any less, it is just that I have accepted that she has gone.
And of course there are many things and occasions when you wish she was there to share with you.

sweetie everyone feels the same way after losing a parent. its normal. i lost my dad in 1983 and my mom in 1984 and my only brother in 1992...i still feel the loss, but it gets easier with time.my grandkids never got to meet my mom and dad and i really regret that but they see lots of pictures and hear lots of stories so that makes it easier too.....i also lost my husband of 23 yrs in 2003..i still miss him so much but,my life goes on just as he would have wanted it to do. give time a chance...it really does help...just remember all the good times..."BIG HUGS" SWEETIE
