- About my Loss:
- My father died in October of 2011 but my sister managed to have a funeral without me. My dad and I were close but once he started staring death in the face I think he became scared and saw me as the enemy, a role my younger sister was more than happy to accept based on long-standing dislike of me. In his later months, he became combative (he was 94 years old) and I was trying to have him placed in a skilled nursing facility because he was 94, blind, living alone in a feces infested house and my sister promised to him he could live on his own so suddenly both myself and my children became the "evil" people who were trying to "change his life while we were the only ones who would visit and see him regularly. He eventually died and she didn't even bother to tell us until well after to make sure we couldn't speak to him. That she would do that to his only grandchildren kills me.
Then my mother became sick and my son and I flew to Vegas and were with her the last weeks of her life in hospice. We watched her pass away on August 3, 2012. We didn't have a funeral for her because we couldn't afford one and I had just started a new job and relationship. Her ashes are at our home but I have had a difficult time at work, can't get time off for grief counseling, my boyfriend is understanding but his ex wife and his step-son were so rude and terrible to me saying we were depressed and painting us as bad people that I still feel like I am cored. It's now nearly December and I should be over this but I am not, feel like I'm drowning and have no family or friends now. I wish I could just ball up and die but my two teenage sons are depending on me (I was divorced in 2008 and part of the reason I even moved back to the US was to be near my parents and they died).

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
