Well most of you know I am a carer for my mum. On Tuesday morning my world fell apart as my mum passed away peacefully in her sleep. I wasn't at the hospital but it was good to know that a nurse was with her holding her hand as she passed. To that point I had been caring for her since 2015 but as her main full time carer since 2021. Currently I am all over the place mentally, emotionally and physically drained. I knew it would happen at somepoint but hoped I would get a few more years with her but unfortunately that wasn't the case. She is at peace and free from pain. I am also having to deal with all of her affairs and struggling to grieve and will also have to move house. I will get over it but currently it hurts like hell. So what happens about my streaming. I am planning to stream on Saturday. but having a rest over the next few days. So if you see me doing a moody post forgive me as I am all over the place at the moment.

Amen to that matey. I looked after my dad for 5 years after he developed dementia and it was hard but he never stopped being my dad; it’s 8 years and I still miss him every day. Stay strong and keep your head up, you will get through this and me and the rest of this mob are standing right under each of your arms. Phill
I am very sorry to hear that mate as, from when I first started on the forum, the time you spent with, and care you provided for your mother has been instantly clear and so I and most on here know how much of a loss you are facing even if we haven't faced it ourselves. As said keep your head up, and remember we are all here, and if comes to it and you just need a release, my DM ( to use modern lingo) is always open. I watched one of your streams a couple of weeks ago (a good watch it was as well) and I am sure everyone who was watching will understand and support you with the rest of us on here.
I lost my Mum five years ago. Still miss her so so much. Tearing up now just posting this reply. Sorry to hear of your loss. I wish I could say time heals, but I don’t think it does. I hope you find the strength to get through.
Sorry for your loss. Wish I had the words, but only time heals those hurts. I'm sure she really appreciated having you there all these last years. Not everyone gets that.
I’m very sorry to hear about your loss. I’m wishing you all the best. Here’s to all the happy memories with our mums!
Really sorry to read that, Hentis. Please accept my condolences! I still have my mother around. But we´re not growing younger. Your post teaches me to enjoy and appreciate every hour we´ve still left.
RIP and condolences Anthony. Both my parents passed many years ago (mum in 98, dad in 2007) but it is a very difficult thing to deal with. Be assured our thoughts are with you.
Sorry to hear of your loss. I've been a carer for both my parents for about 15 years. My dad went in '17 but my blind, 93yo mum goes on. All the best.
Really sorry for your loss. Please take care of yourself & your loved ones in this difficult hour. Wishing peace for the departed soul...
