M -


I understand the pain of loosing a sibling. My sister didn't have cirrhosis, she had another cancer, but she was only 47. Her birthday was February 1. I didn't think I would make it through that day. She was my best friend. Everyday, I feel like I failed her in so many ways. She lived 1200 miles away, so we couldn't see each other often. She was so far away, it was so hard not to be there for her 9 hour surgery. I lost Robin on November 13, 2012. I feel as though someone ripped a hole the size of a bowling ball in the center of my chest. Some days aren't so bad, but others, I feel the tear fresh and new each day. I can only pray that you have someone to talk to. I find it difficult to talk to anyone about her. Hopefully, we can both get the support we need from this site to deal with the grief of loosing our siblings. I would like to be here for you as well. Feel free to email me or message me anytime.

Piper, I'm sorry for the loss of your sister.Its recent, and she was young. I know how that feels-my brother was just over 50 when we lost him.it was about a year before you lost your sister, that we lost him.Birthdays and holidays are tough-i had a cake and candle for him anyway, though i didn't sing.  i also just lost my Love, in the last 2 months, so i'm grieving deeply for both these guys. My thoughts are with 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.

Loss of a loved one to alcohol, substance abuse or suicide

If you have lost a loved one to alcohol, substance abuse or suicide please share your story or feelings here. Share the love and beauty of the one you lost. Losing someone any of these ways is not natural and can be hard to understand and ask why? I lost my Mother to an overdose 9 years ago. She also suffered from major depression. Her doctor got her hooked on pain medication and she was addicted most of my life. These doctors who were suppose to help her ended up killing her in the end. I also…See More
