I have immersed myself in the practicalities of mom's estate, sorting out my kids (she was my childminder!), she lived next door and i saw her every day. Thought it would be "easier" when i finished her house? but not so. I do think i need to "unload" my anger at her illness and sudden death without upsetting my family.

Take each day as it comes - things will become easier in time - time does heal. Keep a diary that might help - writing down your feelings - may help. There must be a club for bereavement - talking to others who have lost someone close to them. I found counselling very helpful - but it is not right for everybody - it was hard at the time to go to counselling - but in the long run it was very helpful for me to sort out my feelings and why I was feeling the way I was. After all those closest to us are the hardest to loose - so get all the help that you can coping with this. Good luck
