My dear loving mum succumbed after a hard battle to cancer barely three days ago. We are hurting intensely.
Wifey was 💯% supportive through it all.
Toghether we fed and tucked her into bed the last night. Toghether, we cried the next morning when she breathed her last.
Mum slept 7:30am. on 19th June. It was our wedding anniversary date!! Mixed feelings you'd say?
Hmmm...We all miss her so dearly.
My question is, how will I balance these painful thoughts with the joy of subsequent anniversaries because definitely, the sad memories will flood in on June19th 2024.

Painful... But a man don't cry... Try immortalise the day as much as you can

Make it your own Christmas... Spend on charity, enjoy life abit, remember mama in an happy way

Why is wedding anniversaries so important to you?

Maybe cos he married a good woman. Men with bad wives care less about wedding anniversary.

Even if he is in Paradise, the fellow sounds as if his mother's death ruined his party. I don't like his tone.

My condolences, OP. Stay strong.

May your mom's soul rest in eternal peace, IJN. Amen.

You don't have to commemorate both events on the same day. You can use the day/date to commemorate your mom, then you push your anniversary celebration with your wife to a few weeks later.

As the dude below you said, I married an awesome lady.

Is that why you are pained because your mother's death interfered with your wedding anniversary?

The soul continues its journey. And some day, we will all get to meet again. May she find perfect peace. Condolences bro, I wish you strength this period

Thank you bro. I pray and hope to see her again in the resurrection.

Obviously bending it out of context gives you the kicks.

You will look for joy in your life and never find it, Zonefree

You will wander and roam aimless until death takes you

For everytime you have come for me unprovoked, may evil descend upon you.

Guilty fingers will judge you and you will be counted amongst the accused and accursed. Everything you lay your hands on will never succeed.

Whoever you are behind the account, God will make you cry for the misery you spread.

Oh my 😢
This is a tough one.
May her soul Rest In Peace
