Thank you for your kind words and sharing with me Christine. What struck me about your loss'es was your younger sister. Peace be to you on this. Over the years I belive in my heart that our loved ones that are gone are only gone here on earth. They are in our hearts, mind and spirit. Try to hold on to that.

Gary, I am so sorry for your loss. I know what you mean by it hitting hard even years after. I lost my grandfather in 2006 and even now there are times when I want to share something with him and I just realize that I can't. Lately it's been even worse because of the death of my younger sister. Every good thing in my life remind me of the people that I can't share it with. I have found this site to be helpful. Befriending others who know the kind of pain I do and being about to talk to them about it has helped me. Blogging has helped me as well. Sometimes I just have to get my thoughts and emotions out. I hope you find the same kind of friendship here as I have.

Thank you for the kind words. I did have a hard time making out what you wrote But, I did catch that you dad passed and i understand your loss. They say it gets better in time, however, with me, with my loss, it keeps hitting hard. Peace to you and be well.

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…"
