Hi Leanna.
I can't really tell you too much since I haven't walked down your road yet. In January 2002, my dad was hospitalized. He was having troubles breathing. He was hospitalized 5 more times between then and July 2002. He was diagnosed with CHD (congestive heart failure) and AF (atrial fibrillation).
It was a tough time emotionally. Even though I am not emotionally close to him, it was tough on me too. It was brutal for my mom.
All that I can suggest Leanna, is that you continue to pray. Listen to praise and worship music (and any other music that you find soothing and relaxing).
Always eat breakfast. It will ensure that the excessive gastric juices don't erode your stomach lining.
Walk in the Psalms. You will find comfort there. Perhaps start with Psalms 42.
I know that you must be going through a rough time now. Feb. 7, 2006 was 1 year since your mom passed away. Every birthday (yours, hers and probably those of other immediate family members) will probably be tough to handle for a long time to come. So will holidays.
The deeper your love for someone, the longer (I think) it will take to recover from the loss, pain and hurt of losing them. You will never forget them. Try to remember the good times. Hopefully, you have some close friends who will "allow" you talk about her without making comments (which reflect their thinking that you should have been over it already).
Have you considered joining a support group? Those who have already walked down the road of parental loss understand what you are going through. They are able to empathize with you, comfort you and (if believers) point you to our Comforter.

My mom was diagnosed with t-cell lymphoma (cancer of the blood) last summer, she died this past February 7,2005. Friends are reaching out to me, but I am not embracing them, it's not intentional but I just can't answer the phone nor do I return calls. My heart seems closed off. I have lost my sleep, I stay up till the wee hours of the morning, I am often times forgetful, and most of the time I want to be left alone. How do I open up my heart to my friends and not close them out, how do I deal with all these different emotions, there are days when I am so overwhelmed with sadness?
