    As most of you know, my mom passed away last March :( I have loving, fun, warm memories of her, however, as the holidays come upon, I feel happy/sad.

    Dad is still with us and doing good and he is a wonderful dad/man, he tells me that we will see it through together, my sister and her family and me with my family.

    Mom took very ill in December and all went down hill from there.

    I just ask prayers to get me through.

    thank you.

    One day at a time Ruth. You have your memories, you have your family and your .org family.

    No need to relive the past. Instead concentrate on what you can do this season to honor the memory of your mom.

    Maybe she loved to bake something or had another special holiday tradition. Pass it on, keep it going.

    She is be proud of you.

    When we are filled with this emptiness the best way to fill it up is to give to others who are in need.
    A food pantry, an Angel tree, Humane Society, all ways to help the memory of mom live on in a special way.

    Big hugs to you, You will be fine!

    The firsts are always the hardest after a loss. I believe you will be ok and feel your mother's loving presence as you take on each holiday task this year.

    May God show you in some special way that your Mother is not dead, she is still with you in spirit. Your mother is in heaven with God, the angels, and Jesus Christ. So my prayer for you in Jesus name is that God would allow your mother's presence to be felt and comfort you, knowing that one day you will be re united. It is like your mother has gone on a long trip and you are waiting to see her again.

    Will be thinking and praying for you during this time. Father God give her and the family peace of mind and peace of heart.
    The Holidays are tough but sounds like you got a lot of support and you know there are folks on this page that will always listen when things are getting tough.

    Hang in there Ruthie, and as you already know our situations are only a few months apart from being identical pretty much. :)

    You were on my mind this morning so I ask in Jesus name that God will send you His Holy Spirit the Comforter to bring you comfort and peace that passes all understanding to get you through the Holidays while you are missing your beloved Mother.
