Losing Jim

I lost my partner Jim on 26 Jun 09. Even though he had been quite ill in recents months I still expected him to pull through this last trip to the hospital. But this time round there were just too many things then went wrong and his body couldn't take it anymore. Jim lived in Chicago while I live in Singapore and I have been advised against visiting the US because of the H1N1 situation. Because being a diabetic put me at more risk than a healthy person to suffer more severely if I should get infected. His funeral will be held on Monday, 29 Jun 09 and I won't be there-that is so hard for me. Since his passing, I wake up every morning feeling this big gaping hole in my heart. I have this load of love inside me for Jim but he can no longer receive it.

Hi Pamela, I m so sorry for your loss. I know its very difficult time for you and hard to live without him. Lost of our life partner is still very painful to us. I also lost my young uncle and I know the grief of death. Its such a terrible tragedy.
You should go to his funeral because its very important for you. Be strong and trying to move on.
My condolences for you and God bless you.

My Fathers Loss

Many years ago, I lost my father after his battle with colon cancer that later spread to his bones. The grief stayed with me longer than I expected. Ambrosia Behavioral Health helped me work through that loss, understand my emotions, and find healthier ways to cope and move forward. https://www.ambrosiatc.comSee More

Traumatic loss of an only child

I started this group so that people who have lost their only child or the only child that remained, as in my case, could come together because I believe people that did have a child or children who now have none have special issues.
