grief

Today, I am again confronted with the simple fact that I cannot believe that everything we have been to each other is coming to an end. Maybe it’s 8 months, maybe three years but we have already lost much and we will lose more and then I will lose him. I think of the things I will do after...

Raoljost - (A Guiding Light) Chapter 1 I wasn't able to run fast enough. My legs and arms were going as fast as I could force them to move and they burned with effort. My breathing was labored, but under control. Sweat poured from my brow and burned my eyes. I could hear the hounds of hell...

My PALS, H (Harry), passed away very early Sunday morning, October 1st. His children and I were with him and we were able to keep him comfortable until the end. I can't write details - I'm struggling to get this out. My heart is so heavy and I can't believe it's over. Hospice had just told us...

Here I am going on 9 months since my PALS death I have gone to grief counseling, I see a therapist and I write in my journal. There is the part of me that knows that I did every thing I was suppose to do. But there is the part of me that repeats over and over the night Jon died. I got him...

I don't know where to turn. I have been grieving for 5 years now. The day my husband of 25 years was handed a death sentence with a diagnoses of bulbular onset als. My life has forever changed. I cannot function without medication. He passed away less that a year after diagnoses. It hurts just...

It has been quite a while since I have visited, but I had to step away and get it together as some of ya'll understand. Dad passed about 2 yrs ago. I have moved on with my life but man I sure do miss him. Grief seems to hit at the most unexpected times. I consider myself a strong person but I...

Hi everyone, it's been a while since I've been on here. I stopped coming because it would make so sad every time. It's been about 6 months since my mom passed and I feel like all of a sudden the sadness is hitting me hard now. I feel irritable and a general sense of unhappiness some days. I lash...

Hello all. I really need to ease my growing fears. I read stickies but like most I need help. I have had on going calf twitching for a few weeks. I believe they were brought on after going to a grief counseling session. I went to my PCP she did a mini nuero and all looks normal. I am still...

Hi Everyone, Thought I'd stop in to say Hello. For new members I'm Kim (Skipper). I lost my dad November 21, 2015 to limb onset ALS. He lived with it for 3 1/2 years since his diagnosis. Looking back we think he had some symptoms for at least a year before his diagnosis...
