Hi! Welcome to my blog. I want you all to feel free to post anything. Whatever you are feeling, how your day has been, your story of loss, whatever you feel like. Remember this is a community of people just like you feeling your frustrations and pains. So don't be afraid. Whatever you have inside let it out. You'd be surprised how it feels!
There is nothing to be scared or nervous about, we don't know who you are, we just know that we share a bond with you. I hope you join in on discussions or thoughts!
Dealing with the grieving process at a any age is very hard. Sometimes it's hard to talk to others about what you are going through when they haven't experienced that same kind of loss. This is a place where you don't have to explain, because we all know what you are facing.
My Loss
Two days after my Junior prom, a Monday, my mom went in for shoulder surgery. She was in a coma until Sunday when she passed away. I was 17 years old and my brother was 15. My dad had lost his soul mate and had a very hard time pulling it together. I learned the importance of family and faith. I was forced to grow up a lot faster after that. I tried to fill in where my mom left off in my brother's and dad's lives, but no matter how hard I tried I always fell short. It took me sometime to realize you can't take care of everybody else and not yourself, a very hard lesson to learn. A year later my grandma, my dad's mom died.
I found a great book by Hope Edelman called Motherless Daughters. I couldn't believe there were others like me out there. Through her book I found a Motherless Daughters Meetup Group nearby and found comfort in not being all alone.
