I have been hesitant to address this for a long time, but I think it’s time. We all know that Carealth Services Ltd was born as a result of losing my beloved mother we fought so much to save during Covid 2 but the Lord wanted her more.

No answers to this but I will try to offer some solutions to something I live with every day. Those who have not to experience it will never understand it. It’s the loss of both parents and the realisation you won’t see them again and can’t run to them for help or advice.

Losing a parent, particularly one who serves as an emotional anchor, can profoundly reshape an individual’s identity and perspective on life. For me, the loss of my mother could have instigated a deep and transformative journey through grief, marked by a variety of emotional and psychological changes. This is the part many people around you don’t or won’t understand. They still deal with you from an old self when both parents where alive.

1. Sense of Loss and Identity: With the death of my mother, I may have experienced a fundamental shift in my sense of self. She played a crucial role in my life, providing love, guidance, and support. Losing her  left me feeling unmoored, as if a part of my identity had been stripped away. This leads to an existential crisis, forcing me to re-evaluate my place in the world without her presence.

2. Heightened Vulnerability: Grief can expose raw emotions and vulnerabilities. I have found myself more sensitive to the world around me, grappling with feelings of sadness, anger, and confusion. The loss of my mother has made me more empathetic towards others’ struggles, especially those who have also experienced profound losses.

3. Isolation and Loneliness: Many people struggle to understand the depth of grief that accompanies losing a parent. I felt isolated in my sorrow, as friends and acquaintances may not fully grasp the weight of my loss. This sense of isolation led to feelings of loneliness, even in the presence of others, as I navigated a path that felt uniquely my own.

4. Change in Relationships: My relationships have shifted dramatically after my mother’s passing. I find it challenging some times to connect with others who haven’t experienced similar losses, leading to a sense of alienation. Conversely, I also draw closer to those who have endured similar grief, finding solace in shared experiences.

5. Resilience and Strength: Over time, I began to uncover a newfound resilience within myself. Grief can be a catalyst for personal growth, prompting individuals to confront their fears and develop a deeper understanding of life and death. I am emerging from this experience with a stronger sense of self and a greater appreciation for the fleeting nature of life.

6. Re-evaluation of Priorities: The loss of my mother lead me to reassess what truly matters in my life. I prioritize relationships, experiences, and moments of joy more than before, recognizing the importance of cherishing connections and living authentically.

7. Legacy of Love: In my grief, i find ways to honour my mother’s memory. This I do through engaging in activities we loved together, advocating for causes she was passionate about, or even sharing her stories with others. Embracing her legacy helped me feel connected to her, providing comfort amidst the reducing pain every day. Thank you again Carealth Services Ltd

8. Transformation of Worldview: Ultimately, such a profound loss altered my worldview. I developed a deeper understanding of life’s fragility, cultivating a sense of gratitude for the time spent with my loved ones. This led me to a more compassionate outlook, fostering a desire to support others who are grieving at any chance I get.

In nutshell, my journey through grief after losing my mother is complex and multifaceted. It encompasses a range of emotional experiences that dramatically alter my identity, relationships, and outlook on life. While the pain of such a loss is profound, it can also lead to growth, resilience, and a deeper appreciation for love, connection, and the human experience.
