- About Me:
- Homeschooling mom of many precious children from ages 4-19. Lover of animals, poetry and music, and of course, my sweet new husband.
- About my Loss:
- In March 0f 2011, I lost my dog, Gracie, who I had raised for near to six years, a sweet little calico kitty named Lucy, my FIRST home, and my oldest two daughters, Natalie, age 11, and Kelsey, age 6 in a house fire... I have since been desperately trying to recover the heart of who I am, and discover how to be the 'new' me without so much that I held dear.

Hi everyone. This is my first post here.I lost my brother in December 2024 to an accidental overdose. He passed away suddenly in his sleep. We were only a year and a half apart in age, and he was the closest person I've ever had.One thing I've been struggling with ever since is that I feel an overwhelming pressure to reply to texts and answer calls as soon as I can. If someone messages me and I don't respond right away, my mind starts thinking, "What if something happens to them before I reply?…See More

Oh!.......You have said so much tonight. I thank you for being so honest. Sometimes I read comments here and I just can not respond. Lorna, I am overwhelmed too. That is the word.

I know I am not good company and I stay to myself. I do not go to functions cause I just can not keep the "FAKE" "Face".
