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.
Loss of a loved one to alcohol, substance abuse or suicide
If you have lost a loved one to alcohol, substance abuse or suicide please share your story or feelings here. Share the love and beauty of the one you lost. Losing someone any of these ways is not natural and can be hard to understand and ask why? I lost my Mother to an overdose 9 years ago. She also suffered from major depression.

Mark...I am so dreadfully sorry for your loss. I lost my Mum this year. What happened to your dear sweet Mom is heart breaking, and although this was hard for you to witness she would have known you were there for her at such a difficult time.
You will feel you have been robbed of her, as what happened to her never should have happened, and she fought it with all her might as she did not want to leave you.
So long as we keep our loved ones in our thoughts and our hearts we can never really lose them, but I do feel your anguish at what happened and you not being by her side when she passed over, yet she knew and knows how much you love her so please do take comfort from that.
I don't think we ever truly get over the loss of a loved one, yet we do learn to manage it, and you will in time too as you must find peace in knowing she is free from the suffering of the body, and I know you will feel her around you as she reaches out to comfort you...just as you comforted her.
Many blessings to you.
Rhona.
Sorry to hear about your mum Mark... I am missing mine too..along with others... its always so hard at Christmas too..my mum used to be the 'santa' in the family... always loved shopping for us all... kept working even after we all grew up so she could keep buying things for us all through the year and especially Christmas...we used travel the 600 miles up and back each school holiday to visit her and dad every time I had time off from teaching.. she had such a kind heart.... I dream of the days I would see her at the front door...
