Greetings Holly, I would also like to welcome you. I am sorry to hear of your tremendous loss. I am usually on this site everyday. If you scroll through, you will see many of my postings. I am still suffering from the the loss of my 21yr old son. Unfortunately, you have INVOLUNTARILY joined our sad "club". For me, it has not become easier only longer. I reached the 2 yr mark a couple of months ago. It will never be "OK", what happened will never be "ACCEPTABLE" to me, it just won't. He's my son and I want and need him here! I can honestly say that this site/ these members, have helped keep me out of the pysch unit. It means so much to have all my feelings and thoughts validated and not judged.
Sending many hugs to you and everyone.
Just saying hello to everyone! I have not been on in quite awhile. Finally got my computer working......hope it lasts. I missed evryone terribly. Now I have to get caught up and read everyone's postings......boy, I missed alot! I'm back!
Thanks so much Karen for welcoming me and sharing your support.
Welcome Holly - So very sorry about Heather. I hope you find support, and understanding here. We are all great listeners as we too feel your pain & truly do understand.
Hello everyone I joined Grief support today. On my page I shared the passing of Heather My 19 yr. old Daughter. She passed away on Oct. 10th 2010 in the US 23 highway car accident near Okemos, MI I miss Heather so much, She was my best friend and a blessed gift to my husband and I. I'm struggling to get through the days. Thanks for listening
Oh Lorraine, I know what you mean. I try so hard to act 'normal' in front of my family. I think the girls are healing, which is normal for them (I think), but I wonder if I will ever heal. I'm exhausted from sadness. If that makes any sense. I also feel so stressed with having my son's little girl with us so much of the time. I'm not living my life...I'm acting out life. I hear her now. She just woke up from her nap. Take care everyone. Sending my love to all. ♥ ♥ ♥
Ugh, today was rough. Missing my Sy guy so much I can't stand it. I think about 4 years ago when he was with us but fighting the cancer, and what we were going through then. It makes me sick to my stomach with missing him. My heart is heavy. This is so difficult, I don't know how any of us keep putting one foot in front of the other. It is hard not to let it seep into everything. One of my daughters just got a great job and it has been a good week for her. another daughter is visiting with her one year old, who is so cute and wonderful. Still this loss makes everything else a bit less sparkly than it would be, and it is unfair to my daughters as well. I am trying not to let them know I'm struggling this week, so thank you to friends here for letting me vent. Sending love to everyone here...
I hope you all are doing okay through this month. I am not, but I'm trying. Feel so angry again and started taking it out on my husband and youngest daughter. Feel like I am truly losing my mind. Praying it will soon ease up and I can think a little more clearly again. Just know that you all are in my thoughts daily. ♥ ♥ ♥
I relate...
Adrianne and Grace - Thanks for your words of comfort and wisdom. My friedn who lost child many years ago told me that during this time of intense grief it was important to understand that if someone or something was not a part of the solution, they were part of the problem and to cut it loose. She was so right. Like you said Adrianne, I have enough stress on me now without having to deal with this. Bad as it hurts right now. I feel so betrayed. But I know in the long run it's whats best for me.
