Hi
Mum passed away last Friday (17/08) in the nursing home, I was with her for the week leading up to her end, I cried off and on during that time and thought I was accepting of the fact that I had already said goodbye years ago when mum no longer knew who I was
The funeral was yesterday and all day I felt like I was looking at the days events from the "outside" even when I went to the chapel of rest to say goodbye I had no tears, nothing???
I'm not really sure how I feel (i know it is very early days yet) In the last 5 years I have lost my brother (11/08/07) my dad (08/01/11) and now mum I'm not sure if because of all this, my body has put up some kind of emotional barrier. I feel empty and void, very confused, I thought that I would be a blubbering wreck when mum passed as in her previous life (before dementia) she was mum,friend, confidant to name but a few. My lack of feeling is worrying me Can someone please tell me is this normal??
Confused and bewildered
