Profile Information:

About Me:: I am a 32-year old wife and mother of a 4-year-old. I work a full-time job and enjoy it, and have found that work helps me get away from my grief. I have a good life, I know, but my loss won't let go.
About my Loss:: I lost my father, who was 75, to pancreatic duct (bile duct) cancer on June 3, 2010. He had been in pretty good health up until March of this year, and only survived with the diagnosis for 2 1/2 months. My mother lives alone and I talk to her daily. There are 6 children in my family, and I am the youngest. Mom says I am having a harder time dealing with the grief because I was the closest to Dad. I cry every night thinking about him. Watching a loved one die of cancer is something I wouldn't wish on my worst enemies.
