- About Me:
- My name is Kara and I am 28 years old. I went to art school for Photography and have another degree in Liberal Arts and Social Sciences. Most of my time is spent at my night job or with my amazing boyfriend.
- About my Loss:
- My father passed away on January 27th 2011, two days after my birthday. I was told he had been died four days before he was found dead in his house with a heating blanket on high. Because of the severity of his death I wasn't able to see my dad in the coffin and it had to be a closed casket. The coroner concluded that he died in his sleep of a heart attack. Worst of all I live two hours away from him so my sister left me a message on my cellphone voice mail that he died. I feel so lost without him. I'm the black sheep of the family, but he was the only one that got me and didn't try to change who I am. Everyday seems to get harder. I sometimes pick up the phone and call his cell or his home phone, just hoping that he will pick up. I wish that I will wake out of this nightmare and everything will be better. I have tried to reach out to my friends and family but it seems I get the cold shoulder or that they are too busy to talk. I feel so alone. I'm starting to blame myself for his death, several years prior I moved in with my dad because his out of control blood pressure and diabetes. I feel like if I was there to take care of him maybe he would just be in a hospital bed rather than a casket. I also felt selfish for the fact that he didn't call me on my birthday the 25th like he did every year before. While he was dying I was worried about a phone call. How selfish can I be? I miss him more than anything and wish I could trade his life for mine. I wish things could feel ok, I feel like I'm on auto pilot. I feel numb and lost without him. I just need my peace.

Movies about grief that actually understand loss — any recommendations?
Hi everyone I’m new here and honestly never thought I’d need a space like this, but here I am. I’ve been living with grief for a while now, and some days it’s quiet, some days it hits out of nowhere.Lately I’ve been watching movies about loss and grief - not to make myself sad on purpose, but to feel understood. Sometimes seeing grief on screen helps when it’s hard to explain what’s going on inside. The problem is that many “grief movie lists” online feel very surface-level or overly dramatic,…See More

Hi Kara,
You're welcome. Sorry to hear you're still feeling vulnerable, as do I, but thanks to having a good best friend who calls and meets with me daily, I'm doing better than I might be. I'm not clear what you mean by this statement. "I wondered if you are having the same unwillingness to shoot anymore due to your fathers death because I know I'm feeling it."
Do you mean shooting photos ? Take Care. I'm feeling very tired today as it's raining and I haven't been sleeping that well, so I need to catch up. John
