- About Me:
- Am a widow 71 years of age I lost my mother Jan 8th 20015. She was 91 she wanted to go in a nursing home because I couldn't be with her all the time I lived in NY STATE and she lived in MASS. Am dealing with a lot of quilt because she just gave up and failed to thrive/
- About my Loss:
- I feel so quilty now because I should have said no and stayed in mass to care for her I could see she was giving up and should have taken her in a apartment and cared for her. She just gave up and I blame myself for leaving her there If I could go back I know I should have got her apartment and careed for her myself and she would still be here.I think about this all the time and break down.

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

Sandra, bless your heart! Your dealing with such a heavy load. I am so sorry for the loss of your mom. I am a nurses aide, and have worked with elderly folks for the past 23 years. I can honestly tell you that I have seen many families who were in situations like yours. Some were able to bring THEIR elderly parent home, but most of those who came home still failed to thrive because their poor little bodies were just worn out. I know it would have made you feel better to be able to do so, but please don't beat yourself up too much. Caregiving 24/7 is very difficult, as you know. I have a feeling that the reason your mom wanted to go to a nursing home initially was to spare you some of that. Its so hard, no matter what age we are, to lose a mom. Sending my love and a big hug to you!
