She was there at her granddaughter's birth. She stayed me in the hospital. She spent time cuddling, rocking, smiling and talking to her granddaughter. She was there when I gave her granddaughter to the couple who now loves and cherishes and provides for my daughter. She stayed with me for a week and consoled my broken heart. She still calls almost every day to check up on me. I share pictures with her and she knows how much my heart is hurting.
But I neglected to think of her heart until recently. I've been so selfish.
How do I help her? How do I make her pain less? How do I fix her broken heart?

Oh honey, you can't fix her. All you can do is be there for each other. Part of her pain is not just seeing her grandchild being raised by others, but by seeing her baby (you) hurt.Your daughter's birth is still very fresh, so you are going to keep having a huge range of emotions. Just remember, you are in control of you and you alone. You can't heal your Mom, but you CAN show her how much you love her and care for her. You can lean on each other and in turn, maybe you will both begin to heal.I am so glad you have a supportive Mom. Take it easy. :grouphug:
