My wife died on May 19 after a 8 year battle with ovarian cancer. I am so lost without her. Today is our Anniversary, and I wish I could just lay down, close my eyes, and not wake up. I see the pain of others on the site, and at least I know I am not alone in the emptiness.

I lost my daughter Jerri when she was 29 in a head on with an 18 wheeler. This was August 9, 1998. I know it has been awhile but you never really get over losing your child.  Her sister was 18 at  the time and suffered chronic migraines. To make a long story short, my grief for Jerri was kind of put on hold because her father and I were  weren't really thinking about Jennifer as we should  have and she turned to someone who was not really a very good person and brainwashed her, abused her…

Hello everyone. I'm new to this and I just wanted to share my story. My name is Brittnee. I was born in Detroit, MI on April 27, 1993 to both my mother and father (who have now been married 22 years.) Anyways, what was so special about that day for them was not only my birth but also my twin sister Ashlee's as well. Yes!! I had the wonderful blessing of being a twin. We grew up in Roseville, MI. Ashlee and I shared a bond, a relationship nobody ever understood because we fought a LOT. People…

May 12^th

Time flew and so did his memorial balloon, fifth month since Jeff been gone. I did a lot of thinking and a lot crying mostly wondering what the future holds for me. I do see a bit of progress it’s been two months since the body ache went away so I’m hopeful for a better future. All tho I still wake…

For many of us, Mother's Day is a difficult time to get through.  Especially, if you've lost your mother or wife that you had children with, recently or in the last few years.  It's also a tough for mother's who have lost a child or are struggling to have a child.  I'm blessed that my mother is still with us.  She just turned 80 years old a few weeks ago.  7 of her 8 children, in-laws and grand children were together for a long week-end of festivities.  They will remain precious memories to…

Jeff passed away two days after I wrote this poem it was the first of many to come. He was ill from the first day I met him, and he did a great job of hiding his pain from me. I think in his mind it was something that would eventually go away with time. The last weekend we spend together he was weak and I remember feeling darkness around me and complete sadness still the hints didn’t became available until after his death. The following weekend we had dinner plans with friends of mine. When…

April 12th marks the fourth month of the passing of the man I spend a brief time with. It was a wonderful relationship as new relationships usually are. Being with him even if it was a short time was wonderful. And his death turned my life upside down in ways I would have never imagined. All the beautiful emotions are left inside with no one to share them with. Felt as if I…

I know we all wonder why some people tell us to just get over it and move on or everything happens for a reason. In my opinion, those are the 2 worst things you could ever tell someone who has lost someone they love. Here is how I look at it. When you love someone you love them unconditionally. Death is a condition. Just because the person you love dies doesn't mean you no longer feel that same love for them. I am still just as much in love with my fiance as the day she died. That has not…

Hi All,

I joined this site a long time ago but have been inactive with it.  In five days it will be the first anniversary of my husband's death (Tom - who else?) at barely age 66.  I'm in a really awful place right now - he suffered so much with pancreatic cancer - I was his full time caregiver.  This August will be our 40th wedding anniversary.  Right now I'm not coping well.  It has been a year of MISERY and…

When I lost my wife 4 years ago I thought the grief would never end.. and in reality it hasn't.  What shocked me to my core is how losing our dog this weekend has affected me and how similar the gut wrenching pain is. 

Growing up with dogs I've always known this day would come and that it would be painful, but nothing prepared me for how it would feel losing the dog I brought into my own home, the dog I was responsible for, the dog who loved me without condition.  I was the pack…

One of my best friends passed away a few days shy of a month ago. She was like my sister, like my twin because we went through a lot of the same stuff and we leaned on each other for everything, when things got tough or bad we would always turn to each other. We would always talk to each other every day. She spent her last weekend on this earth with me. It was valentines day weekend. She spent the night with my bf, her bf, and I. We had so much fun and then both her and I proceeded to go…
