My mothers just after labor day this year...still kind of dealing/coping with it still. 

My mother died last August. I can't believe it's been over a year already. I still have a hard time dealing with it. Sorry for your loss.

@Jfreakofkorn Sorry for your loss, too  It's tough.

She actually passed on Aug 30th after being hospitalized on the 27th for an aneurysm but with the holiday coming up and family being all over the place we didn't have her funeral until the weekend after labor day, all in all we all had been expecting it as she had been going down hill sort of quickly after her birthday last year (the 27th of this month she would had been 81) and its been rough that is for sure and I am trying my best to come to terms its a change that I and also my dad must accept.

That's gotta be hard. Do you have friends around you for support? Feel free to PM if you need to talk about anything.

I recently thought that my dad was going downhill, but he managed to recover from a bunch of different things that hit him at once. 

I'm glad your mom got to live a long life. My mom was only 66. I feel like she shouldn't have gone as soon as she did, but you really never know when anyone's going to go, I guess.

Dang... my condolences to you as well.

My last funeral was my wife’s grandmother.  I’ve been to surprisingly few funerals.  My paternal grandparents both died before I was born and my mom’s family is incredibly long lived as a rule.  My maternal grandparents are both like 90 and still kicking.  Living in the same house they have since forever.  

My dad died like two years ago from liver cancer.  Worst part was that we found out right about the time we found out we were pregnant.  He was the first one we told as he took what turned out to be THE turn for the worse.  Anyways sadness, sadness.  We decided to forgo a funeral as everyone that mattered came to visit him in hospice.  Pretty sure I never processed the emotions correctly and just bottled it up and put it on that shelf of anger that sits in my chest.

That is the part of the journey I am working on.

I’m sorry.  I don’t have any decent advice.  Try not to destroy everything around you.  I’m a mess.  Baby name was easy.  We named him after him.  James.
