HK AgI lost my dad in ‘21, stay off ladders, if you are old.
I would tell you I learned that grand kids are made to lose their grandparents, there is an amount of knowing this will happen built in them. Your daughter will always miss her but it will get better quicker than you might think right now. It will be hard for a while but she will adjust as you will and remember all the good times y’all had with her.
She has you now to tell her the stories of your mom that she has not heard.
Gods grace upon your family during this hard time.

TonydecMy deepest condolences to you and your family. My SIL just lost his mother, and even when expected it's always difficult.
It sounds like your daughter has a good head on her shoulders, you have done well.

SigFanSo very sorry for your loss.
There is some comfort in expressing emotions to virtual friends that you might otherwise not be comfortable expressing to someone in person, whether you are close with them or not. We are all virtual friends and family here. That’s why SIGforum is so special.
Prayers for your family.

hapevoI am so sorry for the loss of your mother. I am an only child and lost my mom 21 years ago this past November. I was 41 years old. There isn't a day that I don't miss her.
My heart goes out to you and your family

LoswsmithI am so sorry! Loss of a loved one is always shit, but especially this time of year when it is a complete kick in the crotch every ten minutes.
Know that I feel your pain, share it, will hold it for you until you are ready, and will respect your wishes about how to deal with it but know that you don't need to "ranger up" for anyone, just grieve. Your mother is worth all that pain, and the pain is what shows us we cared.
You are in my prayers.

TMatsI am so touched by the fact that your 14 YO daughter chose the outfit her grandmother would wear for the viewing.
So very sorry for you, your daughter, and the rest of the family.

ffipsI hope all impacted find peace during this challenging time.
Everyone grieves differently. That said, everyone needs to grieve. Without it, issues will come out later at likely less than opportune times (ask me how I know).
Don't be afraid to let your daughter/others see you grieve and accept their support when offered. The support might seem cliche or hollow, but it is likely because loss is difficult from all angles.
