I am creating this site for the many of us who have suffered several losses. I lost my mom, dad, grandma(2nd mom), grandpa, my beloved dog and divorce. Many of us have lost more than one person or event. Come share!

Hi. I'm new to the group. I just found the site yesterday. My fiancé' passed away on 1/19/15. My brother in law who I helped take care of died 2 weeks later on 2/1/15. My mom died 11/25/14....... I have been trying to find support but support groups are limited in my area. Hoping to find some online support. I am barely holding my head above water right now.

A loss can bring you to your knees but multiple losses not only do that but take your breath away. I know this personally. One thing I've learned is that we must continue living. It is hard as hell. I almost gave up myself but by the grace of God I'm here. Each day is a second chance to live your life. To honor your loved ones. To own your direction and choices. My heart goes out to all who feel the ache that no medicine or therapy can completely take away. We are a unique club none of us chose to join but here we are. So what will you do to change the course of your grief? I hope you all learn to make peace with what we can't control and find blessings in living.

My thoughts and prayers go out to you all.

These holiday! Sheesh! If the Missing could just come for one person at a time, but no, with 3 losses so close together, one just leads to another to another and suddenly the wave of missing is a giant that takes me under! I have no tolerance, I can't do the normal small talk required at all these holiday functions with people I don't really know or care about. I need to conserve my energy. How is this NORAML? I feel like I just found out Santa isnt real- is it going to feel like this FOREVER? Does it get better? It's all still new, but it sure feels like I have felt this way for a very long time now. My precious mil passed 3 years ago...6 months after she passed my own momma was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, and that was a hell ride for 22 months until she passed one year ago. 2 months before she passed we found out that my father in law was terminal, and he passed 6 months after my mom. And when there are no more parents to take care of stuff guess who has to do it? The kids! We did. We are supposed to lose our parents first. This is the right order. I just feel that our 30's are too young to be doing it. It's our first Christmas without my father in law. It can't feel this raw forever, can it? Sending love to everyone, everywhere. This crap is HARD!

@Theresa - I understand what you've said... I've lost my father & husband, but, also friends and my four-legged companions. It is so hard. I have been trying to put my life back together... through help.. I had to get... this group is good. No one but those who have faced loss on this level can understand completely how devestating it is. I understand when someone says - it's so hard to befriend anyone... for fear they too will disappear. Now, this is happening to me.. again, but, I am going to do my best not to walk away from a friend who just got diagnosed with cancer. She's very frightened. But, all I wanted to do is stop talking to her. How HORRIBLE TO BE! But, I won't. I hope she makes it & by faith... and love I am going to do my best. Love you all... love and faith - therapy you can afford, sometimes medicine.. to get you through.. I wanted to end my pain so many times & have no family & believe me those who that remain have no real understanding and I always feel strained. Kindness is what we need... kindness.

Thank you for setting this Group up. The Holidays are very hard for us. I am alone now for 4 years & sometimes can barely make it through.

Theresa, I am praying for you. You have truly endured a huge amount of loss in a short period of time. God is able. I have had to let go and let god. Prayer changes things. I still have grief at times. But I am better than I was after loosing both parents within a year.

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
