thank you for saying that poodicat!
Lovely memories of our mums help us to get through the years without them being there.
mums been a diamond , she was there for me throughout some of my troubles in life , and I can never forget what a great mum she was, bless her cotton socks x

[ummmm]

No not at all. Sometimes wish I was, especially now my Dad is dead....it's just not there though. She was a really good Mum when we were little so I have no reason for not connecting with her. Apparently I wouldn't even let her cuddle me.....I saved them all for my Dad.

sadly i lost the closeness in her last years, but got closer to her in her last weeks of life.

Im not close to my Mother at all.She was instrumental in making our family 'dysfuntional' by her attempt at being a Matriach of the entire extended family after my Nannie died.She is a very selfish,self centred woman and is proof positive that blood isnt thicker than water.My Dads really couthy though but they come as a pair so cant get near him for her.

I only had mine for 13 short years - make the most of the one you have!

Thats very sad Roslyn:(

What if your Mother doesnt want you tho? Cant make the most of them then ...

My mum died 7 years ago. I do miss her, but she wasn't the most maternal woman and I wish she would have let me get closer to her. As it was i was very close to my grandparents and so i still had a loving upbringing. I was an 'accident' and my mother never let me forget it: she packed me off to boarding school when i was 10 and i never forgave her for that. It's reassuring to see there are other people who aren't close to their mothers. All my friends are really close to theirs and it makes me a bit sad that i could never get that with my mum.

I was when she was still here, she died seven years ago. I lived with her for six years in the 1990s after my first marriage broke up - it gave us a whole new relationship of two adult women sharing a house (interesting!) - but we became good friends, even if we did wind each other up at times. I still miss her.

its great to hear your mum is better.headwreck.

My mum died in '92, and I still miss her-if only for her to see her grand-daughter.
I was always pretty close to her-except when I first left home. That is most likely due to me trying to find myself as a young adult. She was a very mumsy mother...when she died,my ex said he loved her more than his own mum-it was the only time I ever saw him cry.

Unfortunately I am not at all close to my Mum, I was a Daddy's Girl but my dad died nearly 2 years ago. My Mum is closer to my Older Sister. My sister can do nothing wrong in my mum's eyes. Sun shines out of her arse. Bin a bit lost since my dad died to be honest
