Really rambled today, I apologize.

Thank you Connie, my darlin' friend. Derek wants to stay in San Antonio. At least it is closer to us here in Arizona than we were in Sacramento. His other choices are Tucdon or Phoenix. We live in a very small town outside Sedona so there are no real opportunities for him here. I pray everyday that Josh will help him. He is all that is important to me in this world.
Thank you all for being here for me. You all help me function in this world. Death scares me for what if I don't get to see Josh, to be with him. I have to be here for Derek as he could not make it without me. Sorry I speak so scattered, my memory is gone, my patience and sense of humor...gone, disappeared. I am not myself or maybe I am the new me the shell of how I use to be.

I got one Christmas Card from one of all of my friends back in Sacramento. To be mean I just sent them all texts/emails just to make them feel bad. When you lose a child suddenly you don't exist anymore. Best friends disappear. Whatever...they don't know what to say...to bad they just can't speak from the heart.

Jill I am so sorry to hear about Derek losing his job. My heart goes out to him and your family. That's so tough. You really do wonder about people's humanity. Is he going tom stay there and look for another job? You must feel like a yo-yo, first moving to be with him with his other job, him moving away again and now losing the job. Well that just sucks. You just have to trust that Josh will help guide him to the right place and you as well. Big hugs all around.

So much, my youngest son got fired from his job right before Christmas. The bitch knew about Derek losing his brother a year ago, Derek up and moved away from us to San Antonio for this job. A college graduate working 7 days a week 10 hours,driving 2-3 hours a day, making $1200 a month. Problems at work? I don't think so but...grieving for his brother and his learning disability? Where is the kindness in this world? Please Christmas leave, over, over, over. How much more can anyone take? I miss my Joshie so much. i haven't slept more than a very few hours a night for over a year even with the meds my doctor gave me-nothing helps. WYWH

Teresa - unbelievable! So sorry. People like to tell me about all the bad car accidents they know of - where everyone was fine - but what a BAD accident. Does this make them relate to me more?

Hugs Toni

Yesterday in an attempt to make me feel better (I think) someone started telling me how many people have lost their children.
I didn't really get that.
You mean to tell me I'm not the only one?
Oh, silly me there are so many of us so why would I need to grieve for MINE!
 
People will NEVER stop saying insensitive and STUPID things to us.

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.
