I don't know that the loss ever goes away...at least it doesn't for me. It gets a little easier and life goes on, but you never stop missing them. I am sorry for your loss. All I can say is time does help.

Mourning is a deeply personal thing. Because of this, the time of mourning will vary between person. Also, the more intimate a relationship the more one will mourn. If something happened to my husband I can say that I would be in a type of mourning for the rest of my life. Why? Because of how much I love him. I would be seperated from him, and not able to be with him, his touch, his voice, his gentle presence, his smile, everything that made him him would be gone from me. Would it impede my life? Not at all. Continuing with this hypothetical - if my husband passed that would not mean that my life would end too. I would have to keep going, to keep acheiving to keep living and finding beauty and meaning in life. He would want that for me. I would mourn him less drastically - but I would always mourn him. Today we put time lines on everything and try to shove our lives into them to engage in so called normal behavior. I think it is awful to say that one can only mourn for a week, that that is long enough and if we mourn for longer we are wasting engery.

My Grandpa died in 1990 and I still mourn his loss. There's lots of things, like when I graduated from college with honors that I always thought, "I wish Grandpa was here to see this!" and I know it'll be that way for all my other accomplishments. He died in December and every December I get real somber. He was the only father figure I had growing up so I miss that more than anything else!

depends on how fast you deal with it. I lost my little brother at the age of 21 -- in 1998, I still mourn his loss, but not like I did when it was still real fresh. It took a couple years to stop crying at holidays and stuff. Now, I am just sad and miss him on holidays and wonder what it would be like if he was still here.

My grandmother\best friend passed away 19 years ago and I still miss her. I will always mourn for her, but the sadness is just replaced with great memories of my time with her. There really is no set amount of time, all I can tell you is it does ease up some.I am so sorry for your loss.

I'm still mourning my father who passed away in 1985. It's something you never get over, but live with. I also lost my mom in 2003 and still want to pick up the phone to call her. It gets better, I promise - and the memories are the things that get you through. God Bless You!

In a way, I suppose I mourn them forever. First comes despair, then healing, then simply remembering. Mourning doesn't always have to be a bad thing, in my opinion.

Think of all the good things the person accomplished in there life. They are not suffering now and remember you will get to see him again one day. They are in a better place also it helps to talk about it. You can write your thoughts on down. I wrote a poem when I lost my best friend it helpt some. Everything takes time. Think of all the memories spend together.
