The results showed that the level of feelings of loss among mothers whose children died was moderate.

The results showed that the level of positive thinking of mothers whose sons died was high; the results showed that there was no correlation between positive thinking and feelings of loss.

The results of the study showed that there were no differences due to the variable age in the level of positive thinking, while there were differences due to scientific qualifications in favor of mothers who have Bachelor's degree and above.

Regarding the feelings of loss, no differences were found due to the age variables and the scientific qualification of mothers whose sons died.
