Nope, no real peace. Just awful memories and short respites.
Jane, your recent post scares me. The intense desperation you speak of makes me wonder if you're feeling suicidal. Please don't do that. Your daughter fought her illness for 7 years. I can't presume to know her, but I doubt very sincerely that she would want you to give up on life, especially when she fought so hard for her own. I'm sorry you've had such bad experiences with your grief therapist. But keep reaching out for help. If you want to talk privately let me know.
Thinking of all of you so much! Sending you all much love- I know I do not come on here as often as I should & I am sorry for that- I just worry about you all hearing from a destroyed mom past the 5yr mark still struggling so deeply...... Love to everyone - hugggssss
The hurt and pain has become unbearable for me. It will soon be 7 months since I lost my 25 yr old daughter to cancer. She was ill for 7 years. I was her sole caregiver. I live in constant, unrelenting pain. I tell no one how I'm feeling because no one can understand. I have isolated myself because it's easier. There is no cure for this loss. Not sure how I am supposed to go on. I beg for death. Life has no meaning for me anymore. My daughter was my life, my constant companion, my very best friend. We spent every hour together. I am unable to function without her and have no desire to do anything. I lived for her. I have no desire to live without her. I have read everything I can, I have seen a grief counsellor (he yawned, he forgot my appt, and double booked me)! I am trying to find someone to help me but we live in a very small town and do not have the resources that a bigger city might have. I am slowly realizing that this will be with me for the rest of my life. I am so lost. I am desperate. I hurt too much.
Shelley, You are in my thoughts and I pray that you will feel your child's presence in the only way a parent can-- in your heart. I pray that your heart is filled with love and lightness; Please do not worry about the future because it always turns out different from what we expect, so dont worry about the time when we all will be older etc-- The one who gives life has to take care of it also. Love to all here.
Four months ago today, my firstborn child, my only son passed away suddenly and unexpectedly. I am forever changed. I love you, Chris.
Its hard to read and harder to go through and am so sorry for everyone.
