Too Much Alike

Our children were always very close, and they were very alike.  They were born 18 months apart, the boy first and then the girl.    Both dark headed, brown eyed, they had the same mouths and eyes.  They were also very intelligent, both growing up as honor students, excelling in their academics to the point where they each received full rides in their respective graduate schools.  They were very competitive too, and that may have been part of their quest for excellence - to keep the challenge…

Oh Sue, well first of all darn it I wrote you a note and like a dummy I somehow lost it.......I am so sorry that you are going through all this.  It is bad enough that we lost our children , never mind handling the everyday things in life.   My husband is not the father of these children and so my sadness is pushed down, for I know he does not get it.  I get counseling and go to Compassion Friends meeting.   I know I have to go through the first year without making decisions, but sometimes I just want to leave and go get my own place far away from here.   That might sound terrible, but I do.   It is , sometimes , I think it is all about him.......I think we need to take care of our needs first, we were the moms that gave birth to our children.  I am glad your hubby and you are in counseling, for maybe this will help you a great deal.  You have a lot of pressure on you Sue, and I do feel really bad.   I myself in a lot of ways do too.....I really hope you find , and me too:)) some sort of peace someday.   I know happiness is out for that is when you are young and no tragedies have hurt you, so I just hope for peace and quiet.    Please take care of yourself , Sue, for stress can do terrible things with your body...this is the worst thing you will ever go through, besides the illness of the children.  You are brave and remember, right now, I really believe you come first.  I do think of you often and look for your comments.  We as women have been taught to take care of everyone else's needs.  I think our should be first , for how can we do that if we are stressed out and get sick ourselves......Please take care of yourself , first, Sue.   Do what feels right and feels good to you....you are a good mom , and yes you are still a mom.   Your children showed you how good you were........I will talk to you later...love, lynne

This is so sad. I read it for myself and then I read it to my husband. Both of us in tears. You were blessed with amazing children. I can't begin to imagine how difficult it is to have lost two. I'm struggling so much having lost one. My heart goes out to you. I will never forget this. You have my deepest sympathy and prayers. Your children certainly have an amazing strength and most powerful love for you and each other.

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
