how do i get over my mom's sudden death from an infection in the hospital?

Answer 1

You must remember that we all go sometime and that she must have told you things that you can continue to do in her honor. And FAMILY is always there for you. Carry on her legacy and do things in her honor, the way she would have wanted you to do. Remeber all the good times, the laughs, the surprises, and do the things she always wanted YOU to do. She may be gone, but her love lives on inside of you. And remember, it is ok to cry.

Answer 2

I'm so sorry to hear about your mom. While you'll never get over it, it will get easier with time.

There are several stages of grief, and you must allow yourself to go through all of them. They are denial, anger, sadness, and eventual acceptance. (There might be one or two others but those are the main ones)

I found that counseling and a support group helped immensely after my 2 year old died 2 years ago (drowned in the tub when the sitter wasn't watching him.)

In the mean time, don't take down any pictures or anything. Think about good times, not what you wish you would have done or said or anything like that. If you're religious, pray. That has helped a lot as well.

Good luck. It's so hard, I know, but it will get better. You're in my prayers.

Answer 3

Get up all of her records from the day she was in there, and go and see a "Malpractise Lawyer!!!" That's what your mother would want you to do, if her soul, knows she developed this infection through the hospitol....The reason I say this is: "not only will it keep you busy, and you would be doing it for your mother's sake" , but, I had a girlfriend I grew-up with who's father went into the hospitol, with just a broken limb, and well because they didn't change his wrappings all of the time, like they were suppose to do, he died....So her mother highered an attorney to investigate further, into his medical papers, and what all the staff members did,and so on, and found fowel play.....She got a very large "Malpractise Lawsuit, Settlement!!!" So, if I were you guys, for your mother's sake, see an Attorney who wont charge anything until the case has been solved...... And in the meanwhile, do a little investigating yourself, like go and request all of her files, from her stay in there, :(just tell them its for paying off her bills, to send to the bill companies, or anything so they dont get suspicious enough to try to cover things up, before you can get an attorney, you know). And then watch these commercials that always advertise about malpractise suit's without any "UPFRONT-Fees" !!! Find one who wont charge a dime in the beginning, because your mother's death, sounds just like my childhood friends dad's death...... He died of "Staff Infection" and alls he went in for was a broken limb, from being a P.E. teacher...... So, somethings wrong here, and you kids are entitled to find out what it is she passed-away from, you know....In the meanwhile, "MY SYMPATHY'S, to YOU & ALL OF YOUR LOVED ONES, HUN!!!" I'm so sorry for your loss!!! May God be with you & your family during your time of mourning....

Answer 4

Sorry to hear about your mom. My sympathy goes out to you. Death is always hard whether it's sudden or expected. I just lost my dad 5 months ago to cancer and not a day goes by that I don't think about him. I miss him dearly. But I know that God gives me the strength to cope. Surround yourself with family and friends. Talking about you mom will help. Share memories and funny stores. Humor helps a LOT! Visit her grave and talk to her if it helps you cope. You will never really get over the death of a loved, but time heals all wounds. Seek counseling if it get unbearable. Best wishes.

Answer 5

You don't say how long ago this was. I'm sorry your mother died. Mine did, too--suddenly at the hospital. It was VERY hard. My sisters and I grieved for a long time. It does get better, but you have to allow yourself to go through the grieving process. If this has been a year and you are unable to function or you feel extremely depressed, then you need to get some counseling.

Answer 6

Time and talk. Time heals alot and you need to talk to people who care about you and your mom. Grief is a difficult process so get some help with anything you can! good luck
