Hi,
Im not sure where to start, but here goes! I am greiving for my mum and dad. I lost my dad to stomach cancer in July 13and my mum to dementia in January of this year. I feel robbed.I feel very alone now. I just feel i need to talk to somebody who was in the same situation as me.
My mum spent the last 6 years of her life in a care home and I feel terribly guilty that I couldn't look after her. I have this huge range of emotions that keep rearing their head. I feel angry that my mum spent a lot of years with this disease long before we realised it was dementia( having died at 76). I feel angry that I didn't have a proper mum and I am jealous when I see my friends having a proper relationship with their mum. My children haven't really had a proper nan because mum has always been off with the fairies. All this anger and jealousy is hard to deal with and I wish I could channel it better.
Anybody available just to talk?
Thankyou
Ella
