Daniel...

So lately I thought I've been dealing with things pretty well.  My husband and I are set to close on our new home on Friday, work has been going well-- all in all, I'm doing ok.  Growing up, I always listened to rock, alternative, or punk music (I still have the tattoos and piercings, and wear my Converse One Stars to this day).  On my way to work today, I heard the song Daniel (originally performed by Elton John) sung by Fuel.  Now I haven't listed to Fuel since high school, but was a fan…

You can never say goodbye

I rememebr the day my son passed away like it was yesterday. I held him on my chest whiles he took his last breathe. As his mother i felt helpless there was nothing i could do to help him. theres not a day that goes by that i dont think of him. I constanly pleaded to god " how could u take a baby from me at only 5 months old?" none of it seemed fair to me it still don't.There are mothers out there that…

My bittersweet birthday....

I know this may be selfish. I haven't written anything about my dad and my loss yet, but my birthday is tomorrow and it's going to suck.

It's going to suck because, my dad won't be calling me and telling me that I 21 or 18, just to keep him from feeling old.…

Missing YaYa

This is my first time doing this.I lost my grandmother and best friend in January this year.I miss her terribly.Night and day she is all I think about.I miss her laugh,her smile and her cooking.She was full blooded greek and the best cook in the world.
It is so painful to even write about this.I don't think I do anymore right now.

So much so fast

In a three month period I lost my grandfather, gave birth three weeks later to a beautiful baby girl and then four weeks later lost my mom.  It has been a difficult year and I am just trying to stay a float these days.  I have waves of sadness that just overcome me at any given minute.  My mom is on my mind constantly.  Dealing with my grandfather's death was hard but not nearly as trying as my mother's.  My grandfather died after a long struggle due to health issues and his age.  My mother…

My Dad...

I found this site yesterday, and I'm hoping it helps.  Growing up, my father was the strongest person I knew - he always provided for his family, was a hard worker, and a loving father, husband, son, brother, uncle, and friend.  A month after his 49th Birthday, my father had a massive stroke and they didn't think he would make it through the night.  Wrong - my father was a fighter.  Over the years, he had many complications from the stroke, to the point where it was too hard for him to fight…

My Birthday is coming up!

It's on the 19th and I don't know what to do with myself! I was always guarenteed to spend the day with her. When I was in school, she would let me stay out and she would take off from work. We would go out to eat and then shopping for a bit. When I graduated from High School, it still continued, she took off from work and we would go out to eat then to the tattoo place. I never imagined that last year would be my last birthday with her! I'm contemplating on admitting myself into the…

The day that changed my life forever

Warning: This summary of what happened to my dad may be a trigger to others.. Please read at your own discretion as this is pretty detailed.

Just a bit of a background before I proceed: My dad was diagnosed with Myesthenia Gravis, a chronic autoimmune neuromuscular disease about 10 years ago. This disease requires the use of immuno-suppressants, which if taken for an extended amount of time, may cause cancer (in this case,…

Is this normal...

On the one year anniversary of my sister's passing. A mass is scheduled. Mom, dad and I plan to attend. Dad called brother-in-law to let him know we will stop by on our way to mass. He is fishing, but will be home in the afternoon. On arrival to their home, their two teenage boys are home watching tv. We chat with them. We decide to take some pictures of their lawn, plantings, flowers, etc. She loved her outside space. We get ready to leave and BIL pulls in with his boat. He brings his…

missing my Mom

I lost my Mom April 2011. I think Im getting better these days and than I have a day like today where all I wanna do is cry. She was my best friend. We talked everyday if not a couple times a day. So when Im having a bad day like today and I cant pick up the phone and call her I get real sad and mad. I have been having alot of off the wall dreams lately so this is another reason why Im probably upset today too. I talk to my friends and my immediate family about my feelings sometimes and I…

Bad Day Yesterday

Yesterday was hard. I get blindsided every now and then with the grief. I miss my husband so much. I feel like he was taken away too soon. My daughter told me that God took him at the right time. Everything happens according to God's plan. I know that but it doesn't make me feel any better. I was counting on us growing old together. The holidays are going to be harder this year than last year. Last year I was still in a fog, just going through the motions. This year everything is clear and…

Being the Other Woman/Other Man

This is for anyone who has lost their lover to death and you were the other woman/other man in their life. We have to grieve in silence. I can't find any support groups and feel like I'm the only one going through this situationSee 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
