i want the world to know i have the best mum, page-22

Sandy Beaches - deepest sympathy.

It's been my own experience that true reality hits, a few minutes after the passing. And suddenly it hits you - this sad realisation - too late - ALL the things you and your loved one (most often Mums) could havem should have, talked about, everyone always so busy - and thinking - "next time" I'll call her - go see her. Why did I never make time for those long chats we should have had. That was MY experience - this huge hit of totally unconditional love..as if I saw her clearly for the first time - but too late.


I;d say to others, make that effort with your Mum. Take that bunch of flowers or drop in for a cuppa. But most of all TALK, from the heart. Not to be thinking morbidly - but just heart to heart chats - talk about their life experiences too. Spend that quality time.

That was MY highest regret. My Mum's death a result of an accident. All the things now left unsaid hit me in the face that day! That the saddest part. Knowing I was unable to talk about things about HER lifetime experiences, things which I'll never know.

There's NO limit to a mother's love. And that will keep you going, SB. Above all, a mother's only wish - is for their child to be happy, or at least living in peace and contentment.

This your Mum. A most precious possession. Cherish them while you can everyone. I believe they are with us after they pass - now all knowing. Still loving us as they always did.

So sincerely sorry for you in this sad loss.
