My mom passed away from cancer.

She spent her last days at my sister's house. I went there after work.

She was so frail and I'll never forget the smile on her face as I walked into her room.

We talked for hours and she said, "You look tired. You should go home."

She was literally dying and she was worried about me. I came back the next morning and she was already unconscious. I felt like someone just shot me. I knew at that moment that I'll never get to talk to my mom again.

She passed away the next day. I went home, opened up all my windows. I went outside the front door and just sat on the walkway until midnight with a blank stare on my face.

Nothing could be worse. I'd rather get captured by the cartels or ISIS. I would go all through that just to get my mom back.
 
I'm only 19 so I haven't had any real sad moments so far....but I'm sure I'll feel the same things you're feeling when my ma passes.

I'm not religious, but your mum sounds like a great person, so I'm sure she'll be in a great place, wherever that may be.
 
I'm sorry, man. I cannot imagine the pain.

My thoughts are with you, and I hope you can find solace in the good memories.
 
Probably when my uncle died. I worked at a restaurant with my aunt when she came into the kitchen and said he had lost consciousness and most likely wasnt going to make it. By the time we got there he had already passed away. Way to young, not even 50. Worst part was that the hospital was so far nobody made it in time so he pretty much passed away alone with none of his family. I have regrets of leaving home for a few years for a job as I essentially missed out on the last few years of his life. For a guy with really poor health he was pretty upbeat and always cracking jokes. One of the last times I saw him he told me to enjoy life and was proud id found a job where I got to travel and see things, as he'd never envisioned his life turning out the way it did with all of his health problems.

Condolences, sorry to hear about your mother. Losing family is the toughest thing to happen to a person I think
 
Lost my dad to cancer. Got to be there to see him take his last breath. It was a mixture of sadness and relief after watching him suffer so much
 
spent all night doing copious amounts of blow. when I sobered up. I had no dopamine or serotonin left in my body and just cried for hours
 
Doctor telling me it didn't look good when my mom was having emergency surgery for an infection from her RA medication. I went numb, got up with my dad sitting there, went outside and called my sister who was two states away at the time working telling her she needs to come home.

Crazy how the brain remembers such detail. Even smells and I can remember the faces while leaving the hospital. One regular day that would've been a blip of a memory ends up being a day that turns your world upside down.

I'm greatly sorry for your loss and anyone's. I can see how a family pet could also be devestating. I love cats, I'm a kitty guy but I rescued a dog Bella from work. It was the best thing I ever gave my parents, they're older and needed the company. We treat her like family because she is. I loathe the day something happens to her. Not just because of my love but how devastated my parents will be.

I feel for ya dude

Almost your exact story happened to me back in 2004

Try not to let the pain drive you mad and get into trouble . I did not take my mothers sudden passing well in the slightest
 
Sorry to hear about your loss.

I'm still young, so I have a hell of a lot of family members that shall pass in my lifetime. I'm still grateful to be able to cherish them while they are around, at least.

For now, the day after my dog died was probably the most sad day.

Yeah, breakups hurt, but nothing hurt like coming home and expecting the usual patter of paws coming your way, and instead being met with silence. That is heartbreaking.

Same with my grandpa. He had lung cancer and it was heartbreaking watching him essentially drown to death.

The saddest day wasn’t the day he died though. The saddest was the day at the hospital when the doctor told him that there were no other treatment options and that he would have to go to palliative care or hospice. The day he finally passed I was so relieved because he had suffered so much.
 
Watched my dad die. Car wreck. Worst part is it seemed like everything was going to be fine. I spent several days in the hospital with him. But then things took a turn for the worst. Doctors couldn't figure out what was wrong and had to look me and my mom in the face and basically say sorry, we are at a loss about what is happening. He was completely coherent and then for unkown reasons stopped breathing in the middle of the night. They saved him but it happened 2 more times and the final one left him in coma. Last time I ever talked to my dad I assumed I would get to talk to him again. If only I knew that wrong. He got worse and worse until we finally decided he had had enough and let him go.


some things sting so bad it redefines what it means to be human. When we think about consciousness we tend to think about our ability to solve problems, ponder about life, form friendships. But the ability to feel such emotional pain that it robs you a piece of your "soul", that is more human than anything.

I'm sorry about your mom TS. She sounds like an amazing woman. She wouldnt want you to stay sad for too long.

Nice words from a 19 year old.
 
It was this past Easter when I held my Fiancee in my arms as she died. Pulmonary embolism, fine one minute, gone the next.
It is what it is fam, enjoy each day.

Damn heavy stuff. I couldn't imagine losing a loved one suddenly like that
 
Damn man, that's rough. I lost someone very close to me and that was the worst time of my life.
 
My saddest day was arriving at the YMCA where my step dad had drown hours earlier and they still hadn't pulled him from the pool or taken my 6 and 7 year old step brothers out of the area. They just left them in the pool crying. I had to pull him out of the pool myself. The four lifeguards just stood there watching.

Then to top it off I got arrested for beating on the lifeguards.
