About my Loss:
I lost my father suddenly and unexpectedly on July 11, 2013. We knew he had pneumonia but he was given medication and sent home and according to him was fine. He had not responded to a text from a friend and that friend went to go check up on him. He did not answer his door and that friend called the police. They broke down the door and found him dead sitting at his kitchen table. I later found out he also knew he had COPD for several years and hadn't told anyone. I have a lot of guilt associated with his death, from not checking up on him more when he was sick, to guilt of the anger I feel with him for not taking better care of himself and for leaving my brother and I so much to deal with (other thing we found out: he had also basically become a hoarder, no will, debt we didn't know about, etc). It has been 3 months and I still have trouble reconciling those feelings. I also now constantly worry every time the phone rings that something has happened to someone else I love.

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.
