I am supposed to start back on Monday sharon. Not sure how ready i am but i dont have much choice, i can't afford to stay off any longer. I know it will be hard but like you, i will be as "normal" as possible but yes, inside a mess, probably always will be. One step at a time

I think the day they came and the day they left are the hardest days to get through.  Connie, my heart is with you!!!!  HAPPY BIRTHDAY DANIEL!!!!!

Rj,

I feel the same as you... I have some good moments, followed by really bad moments.  Grief is like ocean waves and you are right. It's really hard to keep getting back up. I'm working part time. It makes me get up and get out of the house.  I can sometimes make it through work without tears, but I usually cry all the way home.  I try hard at work to act normal and people tell me how well I am doing. I have them fooled, they don't now what a mess I am inside.

Much love Connie. How wonderful to share Daniel's birthday with his friends.

Sharon, i did find it helpful. I am glad i went. Today was okay but this evening sure has been hard. When those big waves hit, hard to get back up! Maybe its just night time, too much time to think once the days come to an end. How are you holding up?

Rj,

How was the meeting?  Did you find it helpful?  It's so hard. We are so early in our grief, that nothing really helps.  We just exist from day to day like robots.  We have no choice but to continue on... hopefully it will get easier in time.

Connie, what a beautiful way to spend your beloved Daniels birthday.

I'm sure it was a really hard day for you.  Hope that being wrapped in that special blanket made it easier for you.

Hugs,

Sharon

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
