Poem for loving, remembering and letting go...

You can shed tears they they are gone, or you can smile because they lived. You can close your eyes and pray that they come back to you,Or you can open your eyes and see all they left behind, Your heart can be empty because you cant see them, or  you can be full of  the love that they shared. You can turn your back on tomorrow and live in yesterday, or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday. You can remember them and only that they are gone, or you can cherish the memories and let them live on. You can cry and close your mind be empty and turn your back on the those who love you and want to help you get through your grief, Or you can do what the loved one you lost would want you to do....SMILE open your eyes, Love and go on...

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.
