Holiday War against over eating / healing / heartache and moving on

I guess as i approach the holiday's this year, they have a distinct tinge of blue to them. I am missing my grandfather who made christmas come alive, and he passed away over 10 years ago. This year it's going to be doubly hard, without Grandpa and without Rosie, my best friend who passed in July.





She made christmas live again, and taught me what it is to have the spirit of Christmas, and to give from ones heart, how great or how little, it does not…

Celebrate Life, Never Forget the loved ones

HI Everyone,  I know in grief there are moments of great light and moments of deep and dark despair. I know that I miss my best friend to the very ends of time, but like Michael said, it is not what she wanted for me. Before she died: she made me promise:1) I would walk a 5 K ovarian cancer walk- I will be registering for the one on October 16th, 2011. I'm terrified but I know it will make her proud.2) I promised her - to never ever forget her.3) I promised to talk to her, to come and visit her… Continue

Peace, Sunshine and Blessings

 

Padre Pio National Shrine

 



 I went to the shrine yesterday. It was like Cheryl was pushing me to go. I prayed and talked with Ruthie. She is a true blessing. I thank you every day for encouraging us to go. I told her about Cheryl and I was very upset.…

Friendship never dies, love never dies

Lost and regret are two words I really hate. I lost my best friend. I regret the times I won't have her here with me. I miss her every damn day. I feel like i'm not whole any more. That the things that matter don't because she's not here.

 

I regret all the stupid fighting we did over nonsense. I loved her from very core. We were sisters, and best friends. 

 

I know that our love and friendship while now separated in death, will never die, but God it hurts so…

Another day, and tomorrow makes 2 weeks since I buried her.

God help me tonight. My heart hurts so much. I love'd rosie with everything. I'm lost. I come  home and talk to her parents, and we share stories, and how much we all loved her, and miss her. I just at times don't know what to do.

 

I miss her laughter, and chatter, I miss the simple companionship we shared. I don't know what else to do. I'm feeling very sad lately.

Rosie's final moments

 I lost my best friend to Ovarian Cancer. I moved from Portland, Oregon, to New Jersey to be with her 5 years ago when she was first Diagnosed. We'd been like sisters for what would have been 11 years this christmas. She was just 38 years old. I was there the night she died. I saw her go from being somewhat ok, and her radiation of the brain working, to suffering with breathing. I had to call her Parents, at home at 5:30 in the morning on July 4th, and demand they come to the hospital…

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
