As me and her "gieving son and his wife stood around and watchd her life fade away.

hard to write anything without launching into the real truth. One never sees how realtionships really were. Regardless the living breathing person who has been by your side for 35 yrs dies. Dead passed away. I would launch into blame, anger (guilt) ?? umm.Ignorance ,being blind sided by emotional and pyschological problems . Living one day to the next ,unable to bring oneself to end a realtionship on…

So Iam in a slump .I miss my wife on the other hand I had better got out and beat the bushes because Iam very lonely.

Iam in really bad shape for one reason or another.She went in the hosp and gradually ove night developed these terrible complications.She was doing alright ,well I know, Iam sure the next heart problem would be the last.Would that have  been better than suffering like that .She didn,t deserve to suffer like she did .I should have known once they said repalce heart valve replacement I should have said my last good…

someones death brings home a sense of reality. Ahh what was that"taking life for granted" I don,t or didn,t understand my marraige to Fay. Well anyway its wasn,t lovinging in a normal sense.The early years were the most productive.I don,t think any of us want to approuch the subject of death.

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
