Miss my parents :(

Hi Everyone,

 I am 27.  I lost my dad when I was 25 and when I lost my dad my mom was still battling cancer.  She died last year.  A few weeks later my grandmother died.  I have no family left and just feel so alone :(  I know I will see them again and gain courage from that, but I feel like no one around me understands.  I just want to talk about them and feel close, but I don't like bothering people.  I would love to find a place of support and encouragement.  I am getting married and can't imagine having a wedding now.  And my FI family is not very nice so I am so upset.

Hi.  I just want to say how sorry I am for what you are going through.  You are not bothering anybody by talking about your feelings. And if anyone makes you feel that way then they are not your friend.  You are human, and your emotions are very real.  Grief is very difficult but it's worse when we stuff it.  I am so sorry for all you've gone through, for your losses and I really hope that will trust God to help you.  And this group.  I have posted before and not received any replies and it hurt my feelings so I gave up even coming back on here.  But, I'm over that.  God knows.  He hears and His heart hurts for us.  We are here to encourage and support each other.  I'm here if you want to talk.  Take care. Cheryl

Oh, Jamie, you remind me so much of myself.

I am 25, lost my dad when I was 6, and my mum just a few weeks ago. I have no one left - grandparents died before I even turned 5, and the rest of my family blames me for my mum's death. So, I'm all alone.

And I don't have a wedding - nor a job.
Just a few friends, that's all there's left for me...

So, yeah, I can't offer words of wisdom, but I'll listen to you, if you want to talk.
After all, I need the same...

Jamie Iam so sorry for your losses it is so hard to lose your loved ones.  Iam sorry you feel lonely, I guess I can relate to that.  But the Lord will help you thru this grieving, but you have to cry and talk about it.  I went to a hospital that has support groups the grieving counselor has been so good for me or I would have never made it thru all the pain.  Joining a group helps because that is all they talk about and they know what pain you are going thru.  need to talk let me know Marilynne

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
