My daughter moved out of our home with my 2 year old granddaughter and I'm a wreck. I was there when she was born,she was brought home to our house, She has been there everyday since. It's been 4 day's and I am having trouble letting go. She is just across town so why do I feel like I'm dying? Any advice on how to move past this?

Obviously we don't know why blueeye7202's daughter has moved, but if she has managed to move into a place of her own this is surely good news? She's a grown up and to be congratulated on moving on with her life.

It could be an empty nest feeling that you are having. I had that when my youngest son went off to university and he never actually came back home. That first weekend was horrendous and I cried for most of it. All I can say is that time is a great healer. Has she moved very far? Have you a husband? Has she fallen out with you? Sending you hugs.

When the youngest of our three left for university in the October we, and friends whose third daughter had also just gone, flew to Tenerife in the November to celebrate take our minds off missing them!🥂😎🍹🎉🍻
