Sorry for your loss. I lost my mother in 2000 unexpectedly. Losing your mother is one of the worst feelings you could ever experience. Only God and time can take the pain away. Pray and believe.

Daniela, there are no words to express how much grief you must be feeling. I am completely overwhelmed by the emotion and sadness you must be experiencing.

I lost my father to cancer when he was 54. He was suffering in the end so it was for the best that he passed. But it did not deaden the pain of the loss. Nothing does. I still miss him to this day. This poem helped me as I wrote it when he passed away. I hope it lends some comfort to you.

TEARS by: Penni Merrick

Tears of joy,

Tears of sorrow,

Tears of happiness,

Tears of the old,

Tears of the young,

Tears for fear,

Tears for tears.

Why do we have tears?

It is a cleansing of the grief stricken soul!

Daniela, I lost my mom at exactly the age you are now. I know this isn't going to mean much now, but time heals. She will always be in your heart and mind as my mother is to this day. Take comfort in the fact that you two must have had a wonderful relationship. My prayers are with you and your family!

I know you are going through the most difficult time of your life. I lost my Mom and Dad 10 days apart from each other, and I thought my world was going to end. I still get tears in my eyes everytime I think about it. It took me about 3 years before I could talk about them without crying. My heart goes out to you, I wish I could hold your hand and tell you it does get easier, it just takes some time. Pretty soon, you can start remembering the good times you had with her, and they will become pretty special to you.

Your day will come, just take a little time to heal from all this. My Mom always use to tell me "Good things come to those who wait", and I am a true believer in that.

Hugs, and my thoughts and prayers are with you. Now, your Mom can be your Angel watching over you during your surgery.

Daniela,

My prayers and thoughts are with you and your family.

My Dad died 18 yrs ago at a time in my life when we were really getting to know each other since he was an alcoholic. He stopped drinking and we were enjoying the time making up for what we missed. Then he left. The hurt was tremendous but after time I realized that the passing of our parents, no matter how hard it is, is the proper progression in life. I also learn quickly that he never really left because I didn't want him to. He's here every day and as long as I think of him every day he will show up. I'll never let him go.

Hopefully you'll be able to do the same with your mom.

Remember we are spiritual beings having a human experience. So the spirits in us still can communicate that never dies.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
