Hi Trudy and welcome to the group no-one wants to belong to. Firstly let me say how sorry I am for your losses - I cannot imagine the pain of losing two children, life deals us some cruel blows. I'm also sorry for the loss of your husband and your pet - I know that animals are sometimes a very strong link to those we have lost and that their loss can bring back so much of the pain we thought was dealt with. Don't feel selfish for feeling sorry for yourself - my goodness, if we didn't.. who would?? We've been through hell and back and we entitled to feel bad sometimes. Time eases the pain but very now and again it all comes rushing back doesn't it. Katherine is right in saying what a nice group this is - so please feel comfortable to write in and have a rant and rave whenever you need to. We understand your pain and there are no fingers pointed here, February is going to be such a hard month for you - please know that we'll keep you in our hearts and prayers - you're not alone. Take care xx

Thank you so much Katherine. Your kind words are appreciated. It has been 21 yrs. since my son committed suicide and 10 since my other son was murdered and 9 since my husband died. I lost our beloved pet in December and am now totally alone. She was 14-1/2 yrs. old and like the end of having anyone with me. Feel so selfish for feeling sorry for myself but I do. I've had counseling of several years and have tried everything. It just seems to get harder. Feb. 2nd my younger son was found murdered that morning. Feb. 8th my eldest son commited suicide and his birthday is Feb. 6th. This is a big load for anyone to handle so there haven't been many conversations with friends. I like your cowboy hat Katherine.

Trudy I am so sorry to hear that you have so many losses to deal with. What pain you must be feeling. How long ago did your sons die? Your husband? With so much grief to deal with, I doubt you will ever be able to tell who your heart is breaking for. I'm glad you found this group, it's a wonderful place to just let your feelings out. You have an awful hard week or so ahead of you. Know that there are many of us out here that are grieving with you and know a little of what your going through. I'll keep you in my prayers and thoughts. (((((((hugs))))))))

Just joined your group and am feeling much pain right now. Have lost two sons - one from a suicide and the other a murder. The anniversary is coming up for both of their deaths the first week of Feb. and I start feeling the anxiety. They were both adults when they died. Also lost my husband as well and do sometimes wonder who I miss more and who am I grieving for. I'm here to support all of you but right now it hurts. Thank you so much.

Karen - oh I'm so sorry, I had no idea and wish there was some way of posting those dates so we could make an effort to be there for you!
When you are struggling is the best time to be here - share some of the pain with others that know what you're dealing with.
Sending belated birthday wishes for your wonderful son and a cyber hug or three for you. Please don't feel that you can't post at times like this. Message me off group anytime Karen - please!
Hugs xxx

Dear Grief Support group,
It has been several weeks since I last wrote an entry. I want to let everyone know that I am still part of the group and want to stay involved. The xmas holidays were predictably stressful but staying busy helped. Following the holidays my wife and I took some time off for our anniversary. Last week I went with a mission group to central america for a week. Staying busy helps but I still dont do well at nights. February 2 brings the first anniversary of my daughter's death. Since this will be a major time for me I will be checking in. No need to comment for now, I just wanted to let you all know I am still involved and value your input very much. Peace to all of you. Allan

Karen, thanks for checking in on us...it's been okay but right now I feel an anxiety attack coming on. Deep breaths...good thoughts. I can do the deep breaths I just can't conjure up "good" thoughts during this time. I really appreciate the virtual hugs...they ease the hurt just a bit and I'll take what I can get at this time!

Grandma sewing room

So I am almost done with cleaning my grandmas sewing room that wasn’t touched in 10 years because of all the mess, but now that she passed away 2 days ago, I don’t know if I should continue, I wanna finish what I started but I don’t know what to do, my grandpa is still alive and I don’t want to leave this burden on him.See More
