I know, Vasanthi. It is hard to know how to be OK or even know what OK means.

Michelle thanks..just knowing that you all are there helps but dont know how to be ok:(

Vasanthi, you are so kind and compassionate to be praying for all of us. Know, too, that you are in ours as well. What you describe is so well known to each of us. I think we are given those hours or days of respite from the intensity of our pain and the full realization of our loss to keep us from going crazy. Maybe being stuck between the past and the present is the new normal we have to adjust to. I just don't know...

Anne and hubby, Marilyn, Adrianne,Ammy,Michelle, Mary, you are all in my thoughts everyday and in my prayers. Had a particularly difficult day, unable to accept that I wont be able to see, touch, talk to, joke around, care for, enjoy ,my son , shreyas( micky)  anymore. It feels like the most painful thing to be ripped away of his presence in my life. Even going about everyday routine and having the mind occupied is only one more way of denial but I can't do more to keep myself 'balanced'.I badly want to be with him as we always were. Not because I'm hanging on to the past but because we were in the present and moving quite happily towards a full future. In fact now its alike a break in the moving ahead process, because I keep bringing back memories of the past all the time which I didn't do then!And when the present impinges on that and I live in the present, after a while I feel guilty for not thinking about him at that time, which means now I can't enjoy either the past or the present!! Any thoughts on this? need help.Tears always threatening to spill over at any moment--ughhh what a way to live!

Anne and Mary, prayers and hope for your personal needs right now. You have endured so much already. I pray that God hears your requests and spares you more trials. Peace to you and your loved ones.

I need your help. On fri. my husband got a letter from the DR. saying he had a tumor on his lung. Now I know not to freak out but I would appreciate you prayers. He goes in on Mon. for a CT scan and we'll know more next week.

Mary and Marilyn and other grievers, I think what you describe is the neverending rollercoaster ride that is going to be part of our life journey until we can be reunited with our loved ones in heaven. The price of great love is the sorrow we feel when our child can no longer be seen, heard, or felt in the way we want them. As parents, our child's death is the one thing we can't fix. And it's always a parent's greatest fear from the moment they enter the world and take their first breath. God help us all through this pain

Does anyone else feel pressure to always reply because you're afraid it'll be the last conversation?

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
