"Good luck, Pamela :-) It is so hard to live among others when your inner life is so different from theirs. I think that after the first year I gave up expecting anyone to understand what is really going on for me. Sometimes I tell them anyway, but…"

Teresa D. commented on Karen's group Missing my Son or Daughter"Karen, you saying your not helpful is very untrue. I hate to say it but those ahead of me let me know I'm okay. Those ahead keep me from feeling disappointed or like something is wrong with me because I'm not "moving…"
Brett Bowman commented on Karen's group I miss my Mom!"I try to do that as well, Bluebell. I always want to be a son who makes my mom proud. I wish that I could somehow know that mom is still aware of me somehow. That she knows how much I miss her and love her. I just don't know if she does.…"
BLUEBELL commented on Karen's group I miss my Mom!"I am not there yet either Brett.It is so hard to be without her. But I keep putting one foot in front of the other, not to move away from her, but instead to live up to what I think she wanted me to be.

Brett Bowman commented on Karen's group I miss my Mom!"For sure my mom will always be a part of us. But there may come a day when I don't remember her voice or mannerisms as clearly as I do now. There may be a day that I have to look at a picture to remember exactly what she looked like. All of…"
Nancy commented on Jon-Paul Ackerman's group Lost My Spouse..."Exactly Bruce and M. Nothing is the same"
Bruce Armstrong commented on Jon-Paul Ackerman's group Lost My Spouse..."Take a trip would be great if you had that very special person to share it with-people just don't understand how much it takes away from you as a person"
M Adams commented on Jon-Paul Ackerman's group Lost My Spouse..."This take a trip advice must be widespread -- I was so stunned to get repeated phone calls and letters from one aunt telling me to go on a cruise within a month of my husband's death. I guess my non response is why there were both letters and…"
John T. commented on Jon-Paul Ackerman's group Lost My Spouse..."Bruce, it's just overwhelming at times. This month is our anniversary, the anniversary of our first date (the most significant date to her), and the 3rd year since I lost her. I have no one to talk to about any of this because my…"
Bruce Armstrong commented on Jon-Paul Ackerman's group Lost My Spouse..."So lonely in the evening house is empty nobody here -been 3 months after 54 years with her I miss her and can't seem to stop crying need that companion and love close"
Brett Bowman commented on Karen's group I miss my Mom!"Theresa, right now my mom is so incredibly fresh in my mind. I do fear that the day will come when that is no longer the case. I don't want my memories to fade away. That is one of the issues that I have with, "letting go.""
Brett Bowman commented on Karen's group I miss my Mom!"It is true that being anxious will not help anything. There are so many things in life that we just have no control over. This is certainly one of them.
It's just so hard to stop having those feelings though. My stomach is tied in knots right…"
Theresa commented on Karen's group I miss my Mom!"Bluebell, it will in time...
I talked things through in my mind a lot and said to myself well I was anxious yesterday and the day before and it did not change anything, I did see my dr and took something for a few months and I am now weaning off of…"
Brett Bowman commented on Karen's group I miss my Mom!"Prayers sent. God Bless you and give you strength and peace."
Luisa Salter commented on Karen's group I miss my Mom!"Today we moved everything out of Mom's apartment. It has uncovered a new layer of grief and I am utterly exhausted. My house and garage are in complete disarray with boxes everywhere. I feel so bogged down with things and things to to. I have…"
Luisa Salter replied to Crystal K's discussion Its hard accepting my mother's death in the group I miss my Mom!"Crystal I am so sorry. I lost my Mom on August 30th, and I understand this sense of coldness and feeling like a zombie. When people ask me how I am feeling, I tell them that I go back and forth between numb and devastated. It seems like I will cry…"
