Good Morning Everyone! Another HOT day here; just staying indoors. Nicole, ignore the HATERS, there are too many people on this site that love you and haters do not deserve a second of your time. Luv you.

Thank you all again for the love and support you gave me yesterday. His 5 year anniversary was a

milestone for sure. Also it comes on the heels of

his BD so I had a rough couple of weeks. We must

rise up and go on, for that’s what our loved ones

would want us to do 💜

Good Morning. For some reason this week has been a hard one; I know not why. Went to the grave sites alone yesterday to lay flowers. I thought being with my loved ones would help me through the week. The grass was so thick that I could not find the marker for my son's grave. (My daughter-in-law has yet to get the stone and refuses to visit the grave). I went to the office and a gentlemen tried for an hour to find the marker. He was very kind and helpful. He went back to the office and brought back information on his phone and after another 20 minutes found the site. He was an angel. It seemed that the week and this event just sucked the air out of me. Today, I plan to start over and do better. Thank you dear sweet Nicole for checking in on me.

@ Cadee2719 , That sounds like a day that could easily suck the air out of you! I'm grateful for the angel who assisted you in finding your son's marker so you could complete your mission.

Today is a new day and I'm wishing you air, strength, and brighter skies.

@CarolD435501 You are having a tough

time. Please know you are special. It is

hard to see that when you’re grieving.

Are you getting any help or support?
Reading a book? Lots of choices out there. Seeing a grief counselor? Finally,

maybe get a well visit at your Dr just

to make sure everything is okay.

Thinking of you and hoping things

get better soon 💜

Welcome Ralph. You have a new family here. I, too, lost three members of my family and this site and the loving people here have helped me day by day. There is no time limit for grieving. Each person is different. What is important is that you take a small step EACH day moving forward. Some days you take one step forward and two back but you just keep trying. It has been 8 months for me and I can say that there are actual days that I am not crying. Grieving is a process. I have felt guilty that my husband, son and brother died within months; why not me? This site taught me that I AM ALIVE, and am entitled to making the best of it. You are not alone Ralph. Welcome to the Family!
