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.
Maybe we start another disscussion on will a relationship survive the death of a child.?
Lisa.... I have felt alone in my grief even with my husband.... Our Marriage has suffered through this pain and there are days where I don't know if it will survive.
This seems to be a time in one's life when we see who we really are and how much of a priority we are for the significant other..... I told my husband to think of that song from the 70"s "You Left Me... Just When I Needed You Most"
For years I have felt taken for granted and now I am crying out with NEED and I have felt very alone... this past year has been very difficult.
I am soooo sorry you are having this experience now.... This whole grief crap sucks.... But it can also enlighten you to re evaluate who is important in your life too.... Hugs
