- About Me:
- I am 42 years old, I am married to my husband Jason for going on 26 years this year. We have three awesome grown children who are 23, 23, 21 years old, two girls one boy. I have one sister, one brother, two step brothers and everyone is married with children. My parents are divorced, my father remarried. I am a workaholic most of the time, I like to keep busy but I do like my downtimes. I work with my family as well as working a part time job outside of that.
- About my Loss:
- My sister was a single parent with her baby and I was there to help her anytime I could with my nephew. He was like my son and he spent an enormous amount of time with us and our kids. My family is pretty close as in we do a lot together and if someone needs help, someone is always willing to hand it to that person. My nephew committed suicide this past August over a heated argument with his girlfriend. My nephew was 19 yers old. He chose to do with when his mom, his stepdad, his sisters and brothers where all home but none of them knew he was there. My nephew being like my own son has been a devestation on my family because he was one of those people who everyone loved and liked and he always made you feel like you had known him forever. The pain our family has felt with the loss of my nephew has cripppled us to the point that every day is one big black hole and were tring to crawl out of it. I really dont think my nephew ever really understood how many people liked and loved him or would crumble at him being gone or what he meant to us all.

Does anyone else feel pressure to always reply because you're afraid it'll be the last conversation?
Hi everyone. This is my first post here.I lost my brother in December 2024 to an accidental overdose. He passed away suddenly in his sleep. We were only a year and a half apart in age, and he was the closest person I've ever had.One thing I've been struggling with ever since is that I feel an overwhelming pressure to reply to texts and answer calls as soon as I can. If someone messages me and I don't respond right away, my mind starts thinking, "What if something happens to them before I reply?…See More
"Hi Rosa,
First, I am so sorry for the loss of your grandmother. Losing someone you love only two days ago is incredibly painful, and it’s understandable that you’re feeling unsure about what to do right now.
