I’m so sorry Nurse.
My Mom passed in December. I’ll have days where I’m ok and some where I’m not. The ok days get more frequent with time. We just went through a bunch of “firsts” without her and that dragged a bunch of stuff up. It’s been rough. But with time it gets more manageable. On my birthday, I made it a point to do something to honor her and that helped.
It’s different for everyone though.

My mom and siblings and I struggle a lot with guilt over feeling a small sense of relief. His last year or so was really bad to the point it was very difficult to be around him and it severely stressed out my family that lived with him. They looked forward to work cause it was an escape. His anxiety had made him so miserable and he wanted everyone else around him to be miserable as well.
I know it is normal to feel that way considering that situation but it still messes with you. I’m trying now to balance helping them out now since he is gone and he was the one to take care of all the bills, etc, while having a life of my own and it gets hard.
