Remebering 26 years
Today is a bad day, today would have been my 26th wedding anniversary. I think back on the beautiful day when I became Vern's wife. We danced and danced that evening. I never thought that he would be taken out of my life after 25 years. It has been 5 months since Vern died in surgery it still does not seem real. my memories of our life together seem to be fading . there is such a hole in my life. My son moved out of my home yesterday he had wanted to get an apartment for a long time but he stayed at home to be with his dad. Anxiety has racked my body I can not stop shaking, relaxation is not achievable. How can I survive this? I am not able to cry, I can not share my grief with anyone, I do not know what will happen if I let myself . I must put on a mask of normalcy, but I am being ripped apart inside.

Dear Kari,
I understand how tough this is. My husband died 3 years ago and i struggle with it every day. Our society doesn't want to hear about grief. I rarely express myself to my own children.

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.
