Poem at Mum's Funeral

[polarbear100]

My Mum died aged 58 by taking her own life. She had been ill for some time (in a lot of pain) and had been suffering with depression due to financial worries. Her closing letter said she loved us very much but she could no longer suffer the pain or having no money. I could have helped more with money more. I rang my Mum every day and the day she died I didn't call her. I feel so hurt, lost and bad about "what I could have done". I don't want to tell people how my Mum died but feel guilty not saying the truth. My Brother says "what does it matter Mum is now dead". I know I need to also talk about circumstances. Guidance please?

Polarbear - Sorry to hear of your sad loss. I truly sympathise with you as I too lost my mother through cancer 24 years ago and it is like yesterday.

I have also lost 2 nephews through tragedies so I know the deep ache in your heart but as they say time heals.

You only have one mother
Patient, kind and true
No other friend in all the world
Will be as true to you.

Remember although she is gone she is looking down on you and helping you.

Hope your brother feels better soon.

God bless!! XXXX
