Help for today & Hope for tomorrow

I am struggling with the loss of my step-dad unexpectedly and them my Grandma passed away unexpectedly. I was closer to my step-dad as my mother and him moved across town from us. I feel like being in the medical field I let him down.

I would do lunch and spend time with my grandma as often as I could. I called her on February 11th and made plans for lunch on February 20th. She was happy and said she had been feeling well. Within 4 hours my uncle called and my grandma was gone. How do I cope with this?

Hi Lacey,

I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your step-dad and Grandma.  Even though you were in the medical field, there was nothing you could have done if they passed away unexpectedly.  Please don't be hard on yourself.  Thank you for sharing your story.  Communication is key to grief recovery so you have made a BIG first step in reaching out to others who know how you feel.    

I apologize for the delay in responding I'm recovering from the loss of my mother as well.   My husband passed away in 2004 and I started this site to help others a few years ago.  Please reach out to other members through the Network, Member Blogs and Forum Chats.  The chat room tends to have more people in it at night.  The Home Page has some good Blog Posts too.  I pray the resources here provide Help for Today & Hope for Tomorrow.  You take good care of yourself.  BIG hug!    

God bless,

Judy
