Hi

This is probably an unusual question to put on here seeing as it says dear cupid but here goes...

When I was 9 I was adopted as I had been through all sorts of abuse. I have been to councelling about this but when I was adopted the lady who adopted me was a single parent and so her mum (my grandma) helped to raise me. She did everything for me walked me to school and back waited for me to come home from secondary school, talked about boys advised me about money, my job and in time became my 2nd mum and one of my best friends. She even called me her 'little friend' and as she became older and with it blind and deaf I used to help my mum care for her eg guiding her across the road, taking her tea round, helping with shopping and helping her in and out of the car.

On boxing day 2008 she died after quite a while in hospital and following 2 strokes. I went to see her nearly every night and was there the day she died. Since then I have not slept, I have cried myself to sleep every night and can't seem to get over her death. It's 2 weeks tomorrow she died and the funeral was Monday just gone. Work (my managers) are being understanding but my staff are taking advantage of me being vunerable.

My friends and family have been amazing but my question is has anyone got any advice how I can come to terms with losing such a special person, I would sacrifice my own life if I could have her back. I miss her so much and I'm crying whilst writing this. She was cremated so it's not like I can go and see her. I have tried going out with my friends but I'm just not interested and I can't settle to do anything I just wanna shut everything out!

Please help

Thanks

Em

hi em, firstly i know how your feeling i lost my much loved mum a year coming now the 6th feb.Its just like yesterday each day since has been a struggle nothing can prepare you for losing your mummy.Like yourself not a day goes past that i dont break down and wish i could just have her for 5minutes but then it wouldnt be enough.The one thing that keeps me sane is i knew she was to ill for this world and her time even though cut to short couldnt be anymore.Maybe if you think that way it might be bit easier pet.Its so hard coping every day without someone who was so important in your life someone whom you always thought would be there for all time sadly life dont work that way em i hope and pray you will get peace of mind you will like myself miss her forever but pleaase god she will help you from heaven take care patricia

Im sorry to hear about your loss.

I know it must be hard for you, as she was so close.

The only thing that can help you is time.

In time you will come to terms with what has happend, and what you have to do.

She sounded a great woman, as she helped to bring you up.

Just think of all the good times you both had, she wouldnt like to see you like this would she?

Hope It Works Out
