Hello Marilyn good to see you here.  I am glad you are posting to people who are in a similar situation.

So sorry for your losses. I lost my Sister about 3 weeks ago. It's been one of the hardest things I've gone through.

Indeed this is what I dread Debra that it gets worse around that time i.e  one year but I am far from there.  I just hope I can manage then but for now I just cry it out when I need to its been 4 months so still hard but just a wee bit better than before.  I write a bit but talk a lot, imagine the parent is sitting next to me etc.  It helps a bit that kind of thing.  Be well.

Hi Mary,

My thoughts and prayers are with you.  I thought I was doing okay with the loss of my Dad. But as the one year anniversary nears (tomorrow), not so good.  I am remembering the days leading up and emotions are taking over.  I know that I need to cry and experience them but this is more than I anticipated.  I wrote a poem for Dad 2 days ago and that has helped me.  I have been sharing my thoughts with others and that also helps. 

Just do what you need to in order to help yourself.  Take care.

Debbie

Thank you Marilyn this was helpful. I was feeling pangs of guilt for not crying...I will hug my mother next time...I guess each one of us is different...I so terribly miss my father but the tears don't come

I have not posted anything for the past 4 or 5 weeks. Being a part of this group has been healing in many ways. Its four months since my father passed away. For the past 4 or 5 weeks I have not shed a single tear. I used to look at his chair everyday and do not sit on the spot where he used to sit on the sofa even today and do not like it if anyone sits there. For the past few days I have not looked at his chair. I pray for him everyday and think of him in some way everyday.  I have not cried and when I see my mother cry sometimes I don't even console her. I just stand there. Am I a horrible person? I don't cry. I should be grieving and it seems like I am not even grieving. Am I so heartless to just not do or feel anything for my father who I loved so dearly.

Is there a traumatic loss of a child area?  I just lost my amazing son and I'm just trying to find anyone that may have a similar situation.  Right now I'm in shock most of the time and I really feel empty.  Then some times it hits me and I can barely breathe. 

Thank you, Becky
