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

Traumatic loss of an only child
I started this group so that people who have lost their only child or the only child that remained, as in my case, could come together because I believe people that did have a child or children who now have none have special issues.
Loss of a loved one to alcohol, substance abuse or suicide
If you have lost a loved one to alcohol, substance abuse or suicide please share your story or feelings here. Share the love and beauty of the one you lost. Losing someone any of these ways is not natural and can be hard to understand and ask why? I lost my Mother to an overdose 9 years ago. She also suffered from major depression. Her doctor got her hooked on pain medication and she was addicted most of my life. These doctors who were suppose to help her ended up killing her in the end. I also…See More

Just wanted to thank you John for your post talking about the ripple effect of a loss. That was a good tidbit and helped me to think/process that aspect a little bit more.
Hi there John:
My name is Kim and I too was a caregiver to my sweet mother. I had been caring for her in my home for the past 16 years but it was just the last eight or so years that my mom needed more care.Uh it was not easy we had good days and bad days.I took this on at a young age as I just turned 46 a couple weeks ago .I have a real hard time keeping up with life these days. Just filled with a lot of sadness since her passing the night before Mothers days and my mom and Dad's anniversary. My dad had passed away 16 years ago and that is way my mom came to live with me because if I had not done that I know my mom would not have lasted that long.
I am thankful for the extra time I did have but right now I face a journey without her and feeling lost because all I really knew was the caring for that sweet lady of mine .Thank you thou for sharing your story and letting me share mine.Kindest regards Kimberly
