Welcome to www.onlinegriefsupport.com - here you will find a wonder group of people that have experienced tragedies and are working through the pain. Any of us will listen with a sympathetic ear anytime day or night. Talking can be a helpful release. Following the death of all ten of his children, as well as some other personal tragedies, the ancient patriarch Job said: “My soul certainly feels a loathing toward my life. I will give vent to [Hebrew, “loose”] my concern about myself. I will speak in the bitterness of my soul!” (Job 1:2, 18, 19; 10:1) Job could no longer restrain his concern. He needed to let it loose; he had to “speak.” Similarly, the English dramatist Shakespeare wrote in Macbeth: “Give sorrow words; the grief that does not speak whispers the o’er-fraught heart and bids it break.”

Julie, I am so sorry for all the tragedy you have been through the past few years. Losing two children and a step-child is beyond belief. I am glad you joined our group. I lost my 26 year old daughter on August 17th, 2013 in a car accident. I am here if you need support anytime. Lynn
