Profile Information

About Me:
27. Work full time, now a full time caregiver as well to my elderly father.
About my Loss:
My parents were always the “older” oarents. Dad was 58 when i was born, my mom was 42. They married late, retired, moved across the country. Then i was their surprise. Dad got sixk early on in my life and my mom, with her strength, took care of him through everythinng. She leaned on me from an early age too. She took care of her parents through their illnesses, with her father passing away the year before she married my dad.

We always anticipated my dad going first. The morning of December 22, my dad called me and tkls me to sit down. Mom was gone. He went in at 9 am to check on her and found her face down on the floor. Two days before, my dad had a wonderful doctors appointment that had my mom sobbing with joy. Did she feel she could let go

As a kid, I knew my dad would be okay and fight his cancer bc my mom said he would be okay. I had noticed the past year some weight gain but I attributed it to not the best diet and lack of exercise, but I didnt bug her too much. She deserves some relaxation. Turns out it was prob a ly herheart.

Shhe would always want to be left alone and not fussed over. I would say “hey, now that dad js getting better, lets get you checked out!”. She always said no.

She was 27 when her mother passed. I was 27 when she went. I miss her more than anything. Some days are fine, Infeel her with me. Others, like today, I burst into tears hearing one of her favoritye singers on the radio.

This js so hard. My husband and I movdd in with my dad as he is 86 and while mostly independent, hasnt touched bills or set out his own pills in years. I just want to si right by mom.

I love you mom.

Thanks for lettjng ne share.

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
