About Me:
Wife, & motherless daughter
About my Loss:
My mother turned 75yrs old on Nov 2, 2015. I talked to her as usual on the phone for an hour, before suprising her with a visit with my children. She said she was fighting a bad cold, conjested and having a hard time getting the mucus to come up. She was in great spirits though and did not want me to postpone my visit. We had a few hrs of great conversation. She kept smiling and saying that she was just so glad to make it to 75yrs old!! I took some pics of her and the kids before we left and told her to please get in her bed so she could rest comfortably instead of at the kitchen table. Spoke with her through text later that evening. She said i made her day. I told her she made mine!! None of my brothers even remembered to call her n wish her a happy bday. That broke my heart, but told her to rest. She said she would try later. 14hrs later, almost midnight Nov 3,,,i got the call from my sister that she could not wake Mom. She was gone...the life in me left, i couldnt breathe. The shock is still, after 19wks n 2days, sooo debilitating!! Waves of overwhelming grief n sadness take hold like nothing anyone could ever possibly understand without truly living it!!!!

I can totally relate. I will pray that your suffering eases because I am not sure it will ever go all away. I thought I would be better by now but in some aspects I am worse. I am raising a 14 year old boy alone and cant afford to let him see me a wreck. Anyways, thanks for replying and I hope you have a great day.

I understand your pain. I lost my beautiful Mom October 16,2015. Today I had a dream about her and me putting her in hospice to die all over again. It was like reliving it all over. I am crying today. I miss her so bad. Her birthday was a week ago too. Anyways, I understand your pain. You are not alone.

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
