Joe,

I was thinking the same thing take me and protect my family. I am hoping like you.

Linda,

For you, me and many here, we may soon have our prayers answered.  I just pray it's just me and not my children or grands.  That will hopefully be the case.

PLEASE GOD, JUST TAKE ME

Martee,

I am so sorry for your loss. I feel we all have had some regrets when losing a loved one, but we still try to go on in this world, even when we don't want to.

Sorry for your losses as well. I am at 30 days since my husband was overtaken by severe depression and alcoholism, he took his life at 58 yrs old, he didn’t even know he did he was so out of it. I am free falling still and my life is over, I too died on that day! My last words were not very kind, we had an argument and without a word or hint he did it in the back yard. 

I have no idea how this goes nor do I have interest in going forward without him in my life! I saw his face on home video he was in such a dark place, I was not there for him!

I hate everything in this world I so jealous of everyone I see who has a living spouse.
Today I saw a pic of us, I was thinking I can barely remember how it felt to be happy and to feel joy or to be  loved...

Hi Bluebird,

Thanks for your kind post. I feel the same as you about getting another pet. No other dog could ever take her place and no man could ever take the place of My Dear Husband, Julian. As with you, I don't want to face anymore deaths but seeing it is part of living we don't have much choice. Take Care, Linda

I feel the same as both of you. morgan, I'm sorry you had a particularly bad day -- I certainly know what that's like. I hope today is easier for you. Linda, I know what you mean about your dog. When our cat died, aside from the sadness I felt at his death because I love him, I felt additional sadness because him being dead meant that another link with my husband was now gone. I can't handle any more death, so much as I love animals I will never have another pet. Some people find that getting another pet, especially a rescued/shelter pet, helps them.

Hi Morgan,

I just wish I could have died with Julian. Like you, everyday I just go through motions. I am blessed with my Sweet Dog, Babie J. I am living for her. She now has dementia and it is so sad to watch her declining. She has been by side since Julian died and was my only comfort. I don't know what I am going to do without. God Bless her little soul.

Amen Linda.......Today for whatever reason was a particularly rough day.  I am exhausted from crying.   I just don't know how long I can keep pushing forward.  I am definitely in the hate mode.......

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
