Hi, welcome

You are not alone with this problem. Many people’s mum is deceased, estranged or not close to them. I feel the same when I see brothers together and miss my only brother that suicided in 1978 at 26yo.

But I have a loving sister and some don’t have a sibling at all.

So as crass as this sounds try to celebrate /appreciate what you have and not dwell on what you haven’t.

I hope that makes sense

Hello Jasmine R

It would be difficult (and heartbreaking) on mothers day for you. Can I ask if you have the ability to contact your mum on mothers day? I understand this would be very hard to do with your own circumstances

I feel your pain as there are many people in the same sad situation too

we are here and listening Jasmine R

Hi Jasmine R

Im sorry Jasmine...Of course this time year would be sad for you being without even knowing your birth mum..I wasnt aware when I replied to you...Can I ask if you have children Jasmine? (only if thats okay of course!)

You are amazing for having the strength to post Jasmine R

my kind thoughts and respect

Paul

No I have no kids I’m single I have a lot of trust issues I don’t think I ever have kids my self

Hey Jasmine

not being able to wish your mum 'happy mothers day' would be painful for anyone....especially for yourself

my mum is nearly 90 and a 'foster child' too....mum has mentioned the same Jasmine....I dont know anything about her mum (my grandma) as she doesnt either....It is very difficult

Trust issues are very common on the forums too.....(me included)

you are not alone Jasmine
