My Nephew, Brother and Sister died suddenly within 10 months

I'm new here so bear with me. On Feb 5th my nephew David was found dead in his bed by his 18 yr.old daughter. He was being treated for bronchitis but he died from complications from diabetes. On April 14 my youngest daughter move across country with my 2 grandsons ages 5 and 11 months. I was devastated.Two days later my brother Junior age 57 fell through the ice while ice fishing. They didn't recover his body until Good Friday April 18th 2014. My sister Dot was suffering the loss of her son and our brother.We were very close so I tried to help her the best I could. We tried to get her to go to grief counselling but she didn't think she was ready. On Dec. 25th 2014 she died of a massive heart attack even though she was in perfect health and was still working.

I'm confused, we never really had to deal with death like this. It's like you don't get time to grieve for one when another one dies. I'm so confused, I don't know how I feel.I have an appointment for therapy on Feb 4th. I seems like nobody understands. I don't go out only if I have to go to appointments. Some days I sleep most of the time and other days I can't sleep much at all.I hate daytime because I'm afraid I will have to deal with an issue and that will put me in a panic.

I would like to get away from it all My husband works up where our cabin is and my brother drowned. I thought I'd go up there the summer to spend time with him and get away.  I had a panic attack and had to come home. He drowned in the pond across the street. Now my sister is gone and I would have to pass her cabin to get to mine which is next door. Anyway that's why I'm here.

Oh Teresa, welcome to our group.  Oh I am so incredibly sorry for all this heartache in your life. That is just too much!! Please know that we are here for you to vent or scream or cry or anything.  My 18 overdosed from heroin 3 months ago today and it is an unbearable pain.  Oh the cabin and the water sounds like it might be too painful but you'll have to see how you feel in the summer. Sending big hugs your way my dear.  The only thing you can do is take one day or one minute at a time. x0

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
