I created this group for people who may be grieving one or both parents. I lost my Mom and Dad within one year of each other. Dad passed away from Lung Cancer and Mom passed less than one year later from Pick's Disease.

It's the harsh reality of life but it can kill you from within.
As a child I saw my mother in bed for 17 years and after a prolonged illness she passed away in 2002. My father has been my rock solid support system and has been the pillar of strength for me…Continue

I just lost my mom suddenly on August 17, 2009 just one day shy of her 68th Birthday! This loss is so different from when I lost my dad in 2005 from Colon cancer. They call this being an "Orphaned Adult" I really feel all alone. I lived with my mom and found her gone. Who will I share my day with? I am finishing up the medical assisting program and who will watch me graduate. Nobody loved me like she did.

Wow! Carrie I am so sorry. I feel like you are living the same nightmare as me. My dad died of colon cancer in 2005 and mom died this august 17, of a cardiac event. What is pick's disease? I too feel all alone and I too am an only child. Today my best friend said she no longer wants to be and I do not know what I did. They say when you lose your parents you lose your past and sadly it is true.
I have found that nobody cares about the day to day things I do like my mom did and her death was sudden and has left me shaken to the core, but most of the time I am numb.
Write to me anytime.
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.
