The second Sunday in May, usually a time of celebration and family, can be the opposite for someone who has recently lost their mom. Mother’s Day can be difficult when our mother is no longer with us. The first Mother’s Day without your mom can seem almost impossible to navigate. Emotions can be raw and messy, and it may feel overwhelming to consider how to get through the day. Surviving the first Mother’s Day without your mother will not be easy. Even though this day will never feel the same, we hope these tips will help you feel empowered to navigate the day in a way that works for you.
As the second Sunday in May approaches, it will help to plan how you will manage the day. The only real rules are to be kind to yourself and to set no expectations. You will get through it; the day will pass, and you will come out the other side knowing that you survived – and that will feel powerful.
