"Nobody on my dad's side of the family speaks to me because I am gay and they are all a bunch of religious nut cases. The only info I have is what my mother gave me which isn't very much. It's just the simple fact of the matter that I…"
"Is there any in his family still alive you could ask? I am so sorry. We found out a few years ago that my long-passed mother-in-law had been married before she married my father-in-law. And she raised hell when my husband got a divorce...what? Hugs…"
After my dad passed I found out he had a secret.......
It's been 8 years since my father passed and I feel like I have more unanswered questions for him now than I ever had while he was alive. When I was 18 years old my Father told me I had a half sister who was basically sold by my biological mother so she could buy drugs. I was also told that he was at the hospital when this supposed "child" was born and the baby came out half black and was not his so he signed over his rights. He always painted my mother in a terrible light as if she was a…See More
Profile Information
- About Me:
- My name is Stephanie. I'm 24 years old and currently Reside in North Florida with my girlfriend of 8 months. I was born in Munster, Indiana but lived in North Carolina and Georgia for almost 20 years of my life. Was raised southern baptist and have been in the church pews my whole life. I've been in and out of Rehab but not because I had a serious drug problem but because my parents were pastors and did not approve of my "Homosexual" lifestyle. My step mom and dad were married 17 years before my father passed away. My biological mother was incarcerated at the age of 7 and I went 12 years without seeing or before she got locked up. I was a very troubled teenager (like most) and suffered from physical and verbal abuse from my step-mother since age 9. I was kicked out at age 18 and been doing it on my own pretty much ever since.
- About my Loss:
- My father died from pneumonia 2 days before Christmas. On the 23rd of this month it will be a month since he passed away. My father and me did not have a good relationship and were not good terms when he passed away. I did not attend the funeral because I felt like nobody wanted me there. I have not been able to afford to go visit his grave....it's only 4 hours away but i have no transportation. I don't know how to get closure, and am very sad and depressed. It's taking a toll on me and my girlfriend's relationship...as I have become a very angry person. If there is anybody out there...a support group...other gay ppl that have religious backgrounds please feel free to reach out to me. You are not alone. We can help each other get through this.

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
