WE ARE SORRY about your loss 💛

I lost my father last year 9/2, and I was PR that literally just ended a week ago, I've packed up, moved cross country and literally still emotional raw. I'm better but sometimes I just start crying quick like but stop just as quick too, that's weird for me, it's all still a bit surreal. My Dad weren't as closed as I would've hoped but I miss talking with him, checking in to hello I love you. Maybe now that's the whole probate is finally over and I start working again, I'll feel a bit better and the healing can begin properly and steady.

😴   Everyone "try" to get some rest when you head to bed tonight. I know it is SO HARD some nights but "hang" in there my friends.

Luv,

Nicole 🤗💛

‌‌👴‌‌‌‌👵‌‌   Grieving in OLD AGE is uniquely challenging due to accumulated LOSS extending beyond losing loved ones. Grief over declining health, independence, and shifting identities.

‌➡️‌[*** If you know a Senior who is "grieving", please CHECK on them daily. If you are a Senior who is GRIEVING, please "reach out" to let the CARING folks in your life KNOW you need them. My daughter CHECKS on me daily. ‌💛‌‌🤗

📜‌‌    "Grief is a most peculiar thing; we’re so helpless in the face of it.

It’s like a window that will simply open of its own accord.

The room grows cold, and we can do nothing but shiver.

But it opens a little less each time, and a little less; and one day we wonder what has become of it." ARTHUR GOLDEN.

‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌👋‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌  GOOD morning!!!

Another "day" for us to get out of bed, "believing" somehow WE WILL survive while grieving.

Stop by when you can to let us know how you are doing.

Remember to GET BACK UP everytime you fall (stay in bed,depressed,crying and so on).

EVERY TIME you do so = makes you a SURVIVOR.

Someone who "survived" a loss.

Someone who is "creating" a life without someone they cared about.

Keep "stepping" my friend.

I am "thinking" about YOU TODAY!!!

🐈‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌    CAT OWNERS, our babies are "missing" our luv one just as much as we are.

So try to make some EXTRA time to "cuddle" with them.

TOGETHER you will BOTH "move" forward the best you can.

*** Mister, my cat - gives me REASONS for "creating" ways to MOVE FORWARD. Between him needing to be fed, his "cuddles" MEAN ALOT TO this old lady.
