Seniors: My mother was found deceased on the kitchen floor, this hurts so much what can I do?

You may want to get off the computer for a while in order to get through this as you have become Top Contributor AND have 47% BA AND all in one month. Doesn't leave much time for all this grieving.

I had the finished 33 rpm album determination of ALL of Neil youthful's artwork from his "Buffalo Springfield" days to Crosby, Stills, Nash & youthful, to solo performances. I went to a music shop as I had first executed as an adolescent, to have those ordered. The clerk said, "That sequence could be nicely worth a fortune those days." That turned right into a even as back. It become salt contained in the wound b/c I neglected his music & now i got here upon out that I had a mini-goldmine too. If i could time-honored, i could were extra aggressive at retrieving this stuff even as i become in this variety of hurry leaving a foul position.

My condolences. I would tell my daughter (if I had one) that God loves her and has a reason for everything that happens. I would tell her to seek comfort in His Word (especially Psalms and the New Testament.) I'll pray for you, dear one. Time will make it better. It was just her time to go.

I'm so sorry for your loss. My mother also died in the home. She had a heart attack. That was 13 years ago and still seems like the other day. God took your mom when he felt it was the right time to do so. I find comfort in knowing my mom did not suffer. I know yours was ill for a long time but she died in the home and not agonizing in pain in the hospital for months on end. Somehow that kind of quickness comforts me.

Dear Rece, I am so sorry for your pain.

I am sure Many of us have experienced such a sad and unexpected loss.

Your mother would tell you she is at peace and loves you.

You will have all kinds of "what if" thoughts, that is only natural. I experienced so many thoughts that tormented me when my husband died. Eventually you will be able to realize she really is at peace, and while the sadness of the loss will always remain, you will eventually let go of the thoughts that torment you. Then you will focus on your happy memories and feel at peace too.

Honey, your mother's empty body was found on the floor, NOT your mother. She is with Jesus and enjoying her life in Heaven..

I would tell her that I have lived a full life, have been loved and have loved, got to see my child grow up into a find person of her own, and have no regrets. Now it's your turn to pass on all the goodness, sweetness, love and happiness that has been given to you.

Your hurting will eventually turn into just missing your mom. And you'll miss your mom more sometimes and then other times you'll just remember her and smile. Love is funny that way. And you can still talk to her in your mind and heart. And don't forget to love the ones you still have here on earth, often so they don't forget; tell them so they hear it too. You have to do this while you are still alive and can do this because this is something your mom taught you.

I would tell you that I will miss you so much. That I will be with you for the rest of your life and that I am only a thought or memory away. I want you to live your life in a way that would make me proud of you. I would tell you that it was my time to go and that it was not painful.

I am so sorry for your loss. My mother died over ten years ago and sometimes I will still see something in newspaper or at work or on a vacation that I think, "oh, I will tell Mom about this, she will think it is funny" and then I realize that I can't, that she is gone, but even though I still get those thoughts, well, I sort of like it because I do feel like she is sort of still with me.

I have a written message for my family - to be read at my graveside.

I have also included the following poem - that I found on a headstone - at the cemetery where my great grandfather is buried.

This should give you comfort - read it often.

Don’t cry at my grave cause I won’t be there.

I’ll be in the breeze that ruffles your hair,

I’ll be in the sunshine I’ll be in the snow,

I’ll be in the places that we use to go.

I’ll be in your shadow and there in your dreams.

I’ll be in your greetings but not your goodbyes.

I’ll be in the reflection of your loving eyes.

I’ll always be with you and I’ll always care.

Don’t cry at my grave side cause I won’t be there.

So is she ill "she's been ill for a very long time", or DEAD

I would leave a note, telling her not to grieve over my leaving. And that I was no longer in any

pain, and that I was in a better place. And if necessary, seek grief counciling and not let any

grief get her down. We all are here for such a short time. And hopefully we will leave behind

good thoughts about us in something special we did.

Do not let yourself overly grieve and bear the guilt that people have when losing a parent.

Seek help if you need it, and keep busy to stay strong. Keep good thoughts about her, and

remember her smile. And remember that she loved you and will never leave you, for she

lives within your heart.
