Profile Information
- About Me:
- Iv been in the health care field for 5yrs and I love it. I will be graduating from nursing school in 4mo, And I am very excited about that. I have an 11yr old son whom I love very much. I like to go out to eat and listen to music( love bands).I just want to live my life to the fullest!
- About my Loss:
- I was with my fiancé for 7yrs. We lived together and we were very happy. We had planned on getting married when I got out of school and also moving away from Chicago. 7yrs together is a long time without marriage some may say, but I was never in a rush because I knew I was going to be with him; papers or not. Well January 2nd 2011 he was shot multiple times; murdered and taken from me. I am having a hard time dealing with everyday life. Simple everyday tasks is like climbing Mount Everest. I feel like my soul has been ripped out of my body, and I cant stop thinking about what if’s. I have been through all the stages of grief except acceptance. It seems that I’m just going through # 1-3 over and over again. Sometimes I feel like just curling up and giving up. I know this is not possible so I keep going to work and to school holding it together until I finally get home. How do you deal with this? My rock, lover, and best friend is gone and I don’t know what to do. Hopefully someone that has been through this can help me or give me some advice.

"its so hard xmas coz our loved 1s no longer with us so sorry on your loss "
Hitting me
My daughter did MAID last Tuesday and I've been holding up okay.But just now the Christmas convoy (trucks all lit up that do an organized drive through our small town) went by and suddenly I just started crying, thinking how my girl won't be around to have these small moments. And not that she would have - she wasn't a huge Christmas or celebration person. So I don't know why I'm sitting here crying about it.Oh this is going to hurt a lot :-(See More
