How much loss can a person take? I just buried my aunt who was by my side when I lost my soul mate. She was there for me to talk to about him when I was missing him so bad, she was the one I could talk to about him without expecting me to heal faster. I now lost the two most important people in my life within a year of each other. I'm tired, exhausted, I miss them!!
Thank you Linda, Morgan...I know the loss of a cat is minimal compared to the loss of our spouse, but it reopens hurts...reopens memories. Upsets the "normal balance" that's so fragile in our lives.
Fran,
So sorry about your kitty. I lost our precious kitty sept 2015 who was essentially more my husbands kitty than mine and it tore me up. It is so hard to deal with loss now. I find that to be one of the hardest things I am trying to emotionally incorporate into this "new" life. I breakdown constantly when I hit something that I feel I may "lose". It's even gotten to the point where I dread thinking that something may happen to someone. Even the may happen scenario sends me into a breakdown at times. All I know is even hearing about your kitty makes me send an extra bunch of stardust for you........hugs.........
annjulie,
I am sorry you are having to deal with two horrible deaths, especially so closely to each other. {{{{{hugs}}}}}
Also, I read alot of stuff about people wanting to end it all. I get it I feel this way all the time without my Mom and my Boyfriend. But please anyone thinking of doing that you can come and message me. My Mother took her life and it is truly a horrible feeling. I can tell you how it feels to lose someone to suicide and you don't want to do that to anyone, especially your children or loved ones. I am not even 30 years old without a Mother, and when my Boyfriend died afterwards. I have no Mother to cry to. Nothing.
I'm 27 years old and a few months ago I lost my boyfriend of two years.. he was only 31. He died tragically, after being tasered to death by the police ... just 5 days after my Mother took her life. I understand that people lose their spouses at all ages. Reading your stories I wish that I had the chance to atleast have a life with my boyfriend... marriage or kids or a couple more years together. It sucks to not ever know what our future could be like. Maybe some people think I am lucky because I am younger.. or maybe I am lucky because I didn't have kids with my person. But I wish I had those things like some of you had... years of memories, wedding, kids... it all saddens me so deeply that we never had a chance
Fran,
Whether it is a human or an animal losing them is the same pain.
As I write this my daughter's cat is taking his last breaths. I watch him take those last shuddering breaths and remember back to watching my husband doing the same thing just over 2 years ago. It may be silly, but I'm feeling the same sense of overwhelment. I feel like I'm losing another piece of Bill. Just when I think the pain has eased a bit something else happens to bring it all back. This is NOT a good day.
Hi Morgan & Bluebird,
I feel exactly as both of you, Today is Superbowl Sunday, Julian and I loved that day, it was party time, now when they play all I think about is the last time we watched it together he was in the hospital, he died 3 months later.
