I am having trouble getting through my days now. My brother died one week ago, after a long illness. He did so well with his illness, a true hero in my mind. I am still having guilty anxious feelings about our estrangement, for some years, before I found out about his illness, 3 years ago. The estrangement was from both sides, more from his than mine, in some ways, but I let it go on, and even felt it was the right thing for me too. Now I regret those missed years.
I take some comfort in our reconciliation the last 3 years. It was truly a beautiful and loving healing, and for that I am grateful. I'm just having trouble with what we missed.
I'm feeling very anxious, and having trouble getting through my days, and keeping my life and work going. That's where I am now.

I think he should forgive yourself for this know that your brother is in a place where he has forgiven you and himself for what ever it was that happened between the two of you. He is at peace. Therefore, you cannot allow yourself to be at peace with this as well .I know that this will take some time and it is not something that happened overnight .of forgiving yourself is the start.

I hope are feeling better because I know how you feel. My Lisa had an inherited disease that took her life and vitality. I watched her slowly die over a period over several years. I try to remember the good times we shared.

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

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
