My big brother died today and the world seems bigger and scarier tonight.
My dad died when I was 9 and my big brother was 18, 6foot 6, and strong as an ox. I never knew life without him in it. And now he is gone. Not sure how much more of this I can take.

Thank you Cynthia, JB and Gina. I have been a member here for a long time. Losing my brother this way has just brought all the old hurts back to the surface. He died in hospice care in the same care facility as my son used to go to for respite care if his wife was ill, and where my husband died from cancer nearly 2 years ago. My brothers final days mirrored my husbands in so many ways. And I walked into his room one day and instead of seeing my brother I saw my dad the way he looked the last time I saw him, ravaged by cancer 3 days before he died. My sisters confirmed my memory was correct. I just feel overwhelmed with loss, grief, and such a profound sadness it is hard to move. Back to one minute at a time. One calming breath at a time

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.
