When Grief Overcomes You
When I was 16, my grandmother got diagnosed with the very disease that took my grandfather from us. Alzheimer's.
I knew what was to become of my grandmother in a matter of a few months. The worst part of dealing with Alzheimer's is, you mourn the loss of your loved one much sooner then they actually depart.
This past October, 4 years after the disease took her from us, she was finally accepted into Heaven. My family and I haven't been coping very well. Constantly blaming one or the other; God or Doctors.
It's been an ongoing process trying to heal after the loss of a woman who was so influential on my life.
But then I came across this website, www.mournerslane.com, where I was able to create a virtual memorial just for my angel.
It's something I have recommended to my entire family, and others who are going through bereavement.
Between the support I have experienced on Mourners Lane, as well as other communities, like this one, I finally am starting to feel like myself again.
For all those experiencing grief like I have been, I highly suggest checking out Mourners Lane's platform for that extra connection between you and your loved one. I hope it can help you, as much as it has helped me and my family

Hello Kaitlyn, I am terribly sorry for your loss, and I think I know the pain you're going through because my Mom was diagnosed with this unbelievably cruel disease and after a heartbreaking struggle she passed away in November, 2008. I will never be able to find words that would adequately describe the pain of losing my Mom. Then my Dad was diagnosed with same disease a few years later and is now in the latter stages of it. I'm sure you know how utterly heartbreaking it is to watch someone, who you love with everything in you, struggle through it. My Mom and Dad had been married for nearly sixty years. Two months ago I was also diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer's. Thank you very much for including the link for mournerslane.com. You are so right when you said that "you mourn the loss of your loved one much sooner then they actually depart." It's almost as if they complete a cycle from a baby back to a baby years later. Kaitlyn, I hope and pray that you'll be able to find the peace you deserve. God Bless

LESBIAN ..GAY 2 SPIRITED loss and grief
Anyone who has lost their gay partner..soon finds that there may be a few things that are different...such as sorting through things and feeling like an intruder because it is also family stuff etcSee More
Assumptions
An assumption is an unexamined belief: what is thought to be true without ever really realizing that we think in that way. For better or worse, understanding starts with entertaining the idea that something is true. Truly profound thoughts generally come to light from the relaxation of these (flawed) assumptions. This is where I find myself today...Perhaps, one of the more significant drivers to pushing down the loss and grief at the time of the accident, ignoring it and mindlessly walking…See More
