Just wanted to thank you John for your post talking about the ripple effect of a loss. That was a good tidbit and helped me to think/process that aspect a little bit more.

Hi there John:

My name is Kim and I too was a caregiver to my sweet mother. I had been caring for her in my home for the past 16 years but it was just the last eight or so years that my mom needed more care.Uh it was not easy we had good days and bad days.I took this on at a young age as I just turned 46 a couple weeks ago .I have a real hard time keeping up with life these days. Just filled with a lot of sadness since her passing the night before Mothers days and my mom and Dad's anniversary. My dad had passed away 16 years ago and that is way my mom came to live with me because if I had not done that I know my mom would not have lasted that long.

I am thankful for the extra time I did have but right now I face a journey without her and feeling lost because all I really knew was the caring for that sweet lady of mine .Thank you thou for sharing your story and letting me share mine.Kindest regards Kimberly

Addie replied to Kali's discussion It was not supposed to be like this in the group Being the Other Woman/Other Man
"Kali I’m so so sorry you are going through this. Grief is hard enough, but going through it secretly, all the while having to continue showing up for your kids, is just brutal. Perhaps your friend was careful to hide your conversations behind…"

It was not supposed to be like this

In 2014 I met the most amazing man ever. We were both in our very early 20s and were looking for different things at the time. We ceased communication for roughly 6 months. During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection. Regular calls and video chats, visits while he was home on…See More
