these days

I choose to focus on the good. The good memories, the good times, the good laughs, the good food, the good trips, the good moments-all good and so good.

Up and down and over and around we go with faith, family, with clarity, and with peace.

"I love you too pumpkin...."

I"m so happy and so sad at the same time. Finally, after months of waiting,  Daddy came back to me in a dream.  I've waited so long.. and it was short and sweet.

I dreamt that I was in their house walking through trying to find the bathroom. I sense that Mom is in one of the bathrooms. All the bathrooms were locked for some reason so I go through Mom & Dad's bedroom. As I walk through the bedroom i see Daddy lying in bed, sleeping. Peacefully, happy.  In my dream I know he's…

Show your pets you love them while you still can..

My partner Pam has been very supportive. I told her this grief is something I've to go through and I love her. Ophie was a big part of me. Now our cat Beau who was diagnosed with renal failure is slowly deteriorating. He was doing fairly well and enjoyed life despite the loss of his eyesight months ago.  Now he's eating less and continues to lose weight. He's the sweetest cat I ever had. He's now 15. Seems like only yesterday... time flies.

  I feel like I'm so weak. My physical pain has become all consuming. I can't move without pain, I am always so tired, and I have a multitude of other symptoms. Still no answers. 

  Friday became too much. I don't remember much, but I ended up trying to OD and slit my wrists. I remember crying on my bathroom floor just wanting the pain to stop. I'm supposed to be happy and starting a new life. But since Matt died, there has just been so much pain.

  Anyway, I texted my husband…

A cure for sadness?

Who would have thought that one dinner would change life around? I've spent months feeling sad, depressed, alone. I hole up trying to deal with it. Understand it. Feel. Grieve. In the end i just feel worse. And more alone. Finally i just can't take it anymore. And a simple text from a friend i haven't seen in months gets me out to a early dinner. I talk. I cry. We share. And i feel a little better. Only to feel horribly guilty that i feel better. What the?



I get home and i realize… Continue

Three Months

Today is 3 months.  I feel more lost than I did the morning you died.  Our son is coming for dinner tonight to celebrate his birthday.  I had to sign his card, love mom.  No love dad.  The first time in 34 years, you were there when he tried to blow out his first candle and ended up sticking his head in the cake.  I dont have a picture of you with him that year.  You were the one taking the pictures.  Next week is Thanksgiving.  I'm trying to find things to be thankful for and I will be… Continue

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. Personally, I don’t…"
