Can I get some T&Ps too, please?

Today makes a year since my Dad died.  I knew today would be hard but I was kinda thinking the anticipation would be worse than the actual day.  I was wrong. :(

I'm trying to keep myself busy because doing the whole "happy memories" thing failed miserably.  DH & I sat down to look through a photo album and I got to page three, started bawling, then puked.  I'm a stress puker.  And I'd rather not spend all day puking.

So, whatever you can spare would be appreciated.

  • I was debating on making a post here asking people to think of you...I just didn't want to add to your pain.  I'm so sorry honey.  I can't imagine how you feel.  I will be thinking of you today.  HUGS!

  • I'm so sorry. I was so drugged that I don't even remember the first anniversary of my dad's death (and barely remember the second). But I'm so so sorry for your loss, and for the pain of today for you. You can get through this, and you will. Be good to yourself today, and tomorrow, and the next day--do what you want and need, even if it doesn't make sense. It doesn't have to make sense; you just have to get through it.  I'm sending you all the good thoughts and prayers and peace and light I can.  (((((hugs))))

  • I'm sorry honey... I recently dealt with the 1 yr mark of my mothers death.  I however, did not spend the day trying to remember happy memories bc I knew I would lose it.  Not a good mix with the pregnancy hormones.

    I just tried to go about the day as usual, but did have several meltdowns..

    Just hang in there, things will get better and just try to divert your thoughts to a happier subject when thinking of him.  That helps me "somewhat"

     HUGS!!

  • You've got it.  =(

  • Oh Dobie :( My heart breaks for you as I can relate. I lost the woman who raised me almost 3 years ago. Give yourself today. Don't take any flack, even from yourself, for greiving. You need this time too!

    My heart goes out to you - I'm sending you healing thoughts and lots of prayers.

    The only thing I can offer as insight is when I'm really sad about my loss, I go to an exceptionally quiet place and light a candle and focus on that light and heat and use that as a source to talk to her. Even if no words are spoken, that reflection and "space" for just her and me helps.

    HUGS friend.

  • I am so sorry.  Many thoughts and prayers for you.

    I remember the first anniversary of my mother's death all too well.  It was so difficult no matter how I tried to prepare myself to deal with it.  I cried all day long.  It gets easier in time, but for now just do what you need to do to cope. Take care of yourself, and I hope that tomorrow is a brighter day for you.  {{HUGS}}
