My pain is new to me to. I have never felt this pain before and its hard to go on feeling it. People say time heals all. I dont really agree. I dont think i will ever be healed from this pain

Cancer SUCKS!! I lost my mom 12/30/08, and the PAIN is so bad. I dont go a day without thinking of her. How in the world do people go on without their moms?? She was more then my mom, she was my best friend and I loved her so much. Im soo angry and I dont know how to get over my anger. I have never felt as sad as I do now. I had a stillborn son 3/30/99, that was HORRIBLE...I lost my dad 11/8/02, that was HORRIBLE....nothing compares to the void I feel now without mom.

Debbie, I don't think that the pain ever goes away. It does lessen with time. Nine months isn't very long. People asked me how do you do? I think at first we are so numb we just go through the motions. But the numbness wears off after awhile and we are faced with grief, some of us alone. I'm glad you found this site. I hope it helps you in your grief. God Bless and ((((((((((((hugs)))))))))))))))

It's been nine months since my mother died of cancer. Everyone keeps saying that time heals, but I think it's getting worse. Now that it's not busy it seems it has all hit me harder. I miss my parents so much it still really hurts.

As we get ready to move on to another month, I just wanted everyone to know that I am thinking of you all. Even though we may not be having the brightest of days, we are here and there is hope. Someday the sun will shine again. The birds will sing. Until then my thoughts and prayers are with you all. God Bless

Michelle my heart goes out to you. Birthdays are one of the hardest days to get through. Your pain is so new. I'm glad you found this site and hope you will really use it. Write lots and often. My prayers and thoughts are with you.

Michelle, I'm so sorry. I wish that no other parents have to be in this lousy club.

I lost my daughter to AML on 05/21/2009. She worked so hard to beat it and went to Heaven to be with Jesus. She would have been 12 years old on July 22. I miss her so very much. The days are getting so much harder.

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

Sibling Loss

This group is for anyone that has lost a brother or sister. Sibling loss is often minimized and people don't realize how devastating losing a sibling can be. I lost my older sister and my life will never be the same. She was my only sibling, I looked up to her, I went to her for everything. I lost my past, present and future. It is traumatic.See More

Triggers Continue to Surface

Late February is a challenging time of year for me.  Jen’s birthday is the 23rd and serves as an annual reminder of all of the potential that was lost…Her’s (mainly), mine, the world’s honestly.  This year she would be 52…It is increasingly hard to imagine, through all of the iterations possible, what she could have become, what was to be her (significant) impact on the world.That being said, things, emotions, have largely settled down since I committed a potential version of what could have…See More
