Today is Mother's Day. I hate this holiday because my mom passed away from Cancer May3,2001. Close to Mother's Day. So this thread is deciated to those of us on here who have lost are mother's to death.May we always keep our mother's in our hearts and in our minds and maybe we keep the values and morals they instilled in us and we may become what they hoped us to be. For those of you with mothers you make sure you tell them today How much you love them and how much they mean to you. Also get them something. A cake,balloons,flowers,a card. For preteens who can't drive or get out Do small things like chores around the house without being told. Make your mom a card.Above all else just appreciate her prescence. |

this is my first mom-less Mothers Day, I never noticed how big a celebration/deal they make Mothers Day out to be until now.
Sorry to hear about your mom, it sucks hearing so much ranting about Mothers Day when I can't enjoy it |

Mother's Day, for those who have lost their mothers, is a painful holiday. There's no escaping it either. The commercials are non-stop for weeks. I used to make the biggest deal out of it for my mother.
It's not even like my husband and I can go out for a nice dinner to get my mind off it. Restaurants are too busy on Mother's Day, and who feels like being surrounded by people honoring their mothers. Nobody can understand how this holiday affects the motherless unless they've lost their mothers too. My best to all.

I lost my mom a year and a half ago and this day along with Christmas has to be the toughest day. I don't know how many times this week I've seen Mother's Day ads on the tv and they get to me every time. She was my best friend and I miss her. I hope nobody takes their mother for granted.

Sorry to hear that everybody, but I know how you feel. My dad died from cancer last year, and it still hasn't gotten much easier to deal with. Just know that they're in a much better place...

My mom died from cancer on september 20, 2002. mothers day is pointless anyway. just another holiday invented by hallmark so they can sell more greeting cards. last year was the first mothers day without my mom and my stupid teacher made us all make mother's day cards, including me.

Sorry to hear about this. It is sad to lose one you are close with.
The holiday I hate is father's day. I have a father who mistreats me and loves my brother more. Here's why: 1. He is nicer to him, even though my father is a huge fake 2. BECAUSE HE LOOKS MORE LIKE HIM! 3. Because he shares more opinions with him Every holiday, we have huge fights. Once, he yelled nasty things at me, so I ripped up his card! In 6 more years, I go to college, then I'll never speak to that man again! He expects me to treat him with so much respect even if he is wicked and evil to me! When I have to make father's day cards at school, I give them to my friend's father, who treats me like I was his own son. |

I lost my mom July 21st,1979 to hepatitis, I was 4 years old, so I don't remember her very much. I do miss having a mother, but I am close to my grandmother, she's like a 2nd mother to me, but I still miss calling someone "mom"

I am so sorry for all of you! It must be tough! I spent the day at my Mom's and both of my kids were there too. It was very nice! I really appreciate my Mom. She's terrific!

Myself, I haven't lost my mom (she's still alive and healthy), but I did lose a cousin I was very close to. She died suddenly on September 12, 1999. She had just turned 30 not too long ago at the time of her passing. When she died, she left behind two of her children -- one was 6, going on 7 and the other was 9 months. They're now 11 and 5 years old. I know the oldest still remembers his mom...And I always think of them every year on Mother's Day. It was so sudden, it took everybody in my family by surprise.
I wish my cousin were still here so she could see how big her two kids are getting to be now.

One time, after being mad at him and I wanted Burger King, he said "You were so selfish. You deserve to starve and hunger". If I said what I think of him, I would be banned for using such vulgar language! And people always say "He's your dad, give him a break!" HELLO! Only people in my place or a similiar one would understand. I know this is odd, but nothing right now could offend me more than "You remind me so much of your dad". People think I look like my mom (apart from gender difference), but I never let people know I hate being compared to my dad, because they might lie to make me feel better. Sarah, how would you feel if people said "You remind me so much of your father" all the time to you? They don't say it to me because I don't, but they do to my brother, and he loves it. |

My dad needs a stick shoved up his ass, too. He's mean, but he's not on purpose so I guess it's different... And I'm sorry to everyone.
