it sucks

It sucks when your parents are gone...DEAD, and the world just keeps going on as though nothing has happened.

Isn't that odd to anyone else? I feel SO offended that no one else even knows or cares.

My feelings are illogical, I know...but it doesn't keep it from hurting.

Thanks for listening.

" That must be very tough, especially on Holiday's and Special Events. I am sorry for everyone's losses.

I think I am going to start appreciating our real life families/relatives and friends more. "

" Daisy, I know and I do care. I lost both of my parents in a 2 year span, and not a day goes by, that I don't think of them, and often cry as well. It is tough, I think especially as a girl, to miss so much. Like calling them to tell them that my son won his soccer game. Like calling to tell them "surprise, I am taking you out to dinner. If I could have just one more day!!! Hugs to you Diasy! Sorry you are feeling sad and lost without them! xxxxx "

" the tears can't stop tonight. I feel like a bit of a baby.

You are all so loving....you know what I'm feeling. wish there was something I could do to make the whole world feel my loss.......My Mother's mother (my grandma) is still with us.......I have so much love for her, and feel so terrible that she has lost her daughter.....which is worse? the loss of a parent or the loss of a child? hard to say.

" Daisy, I don't think there is a worst, for I have been in both places, Losing a child is terrible, but losing a parent, that hurts like hell too. In life, we expect to lose our parents are one point. We know no one lives forever, but no parent, should have to bare with putting their child in the ground.

"A parent shouldn't bury their child, a child should be the one to bury their parent"

I guess you can say, that saying is right. I really don't know which one is worse.

Again, I am sorry you are hurting tonight, as I told you in my pm, I am here for you, and I DO understand.

Oh, and Just scream, it might help. "
