Painful Stories

  • Working with my anger and my pain.

    Wednesday, March 5, 2008 | A Painful story

    Well, I've had another night to ponder my situation, but it hasn't gotten any better. My fear is giving way to anger and that makes me want to stay and fight this out rather than run. I accepted my diabetes, my mental illness, my vision, my financial situation... I faced them all as best as I could. Now this and I'm running away.
    I made the mistake of talking about my feelings to Pamm...

  • hard decisions

    Saturday, April 5, 2008 | A Painful story

        I just had to make some decisions for my daughters funeral. I had to pick designs and the prayer for her remembrance cards. They are beautiful. It hurt so much. I also saw the design for her tombstone. It is pink granite with an angel and it says Our Little Princess Kiele Sierra Sofa 9/25/03-4/2/08.  crying :(

  • Really bad day.

    Thursday, April 24, 2008 | A Painful story

              Today we watched teh end on Brian's song. It hit me soo hard when Brian was in the Hospital because it brought back very many bad memories.
    One of those memories was the day my mom almost died. I was depressed and cried all day.
    Another was when my best-friend died.

  • 7 Months

    Monday, August 4, 2008 | A Painful story

     
    It is now 7 months today since you were called away from me and the life that we shared to go to your new home in Heaven.  So much has changed and yet so much has stayed the same.  The days have gotten longer and the nights shorter.  My love for you is as deep as ever.
    I've learned lots of new emotions since you've been gone.  The list is long, but just to name a ...

  • So Lost Without You...

    Monday, October 20, 2008 | A Painful story

     
    I met you by chance,
    I loved you by choice,
    I married you to keep you,
    I stayed with you to grow old with you...
    We worked all of our life to build 'us'.
    We had children out of love...
    We raised them to present them to the world.
    We let them go to spread their wings,
    We took them back to help them,
    We nudged them out again to make them independent.
    We were left with each other to grow old tog...

  • Another Anniversary Without You...

    Wednesday, January 28, 2009 | A Painful story

     
    Hello My Sweet Angel,
    It started last week - that feeling that has no name.  It's still a part of the original grief, not quite so intense but just a very quiet sadness that is constant and ongoing.  It was then that I realized that today was coming and would be here soon...our 35th anniversary.  My first thought was that there is no more reason to celebrate this wonderful...

    Today all I can think of is the two of them together in the ways we are together sexually and it is making me crazy. This is what happens to me often. I can't shake it! It does come and go, but this is just pure torture. I really wonder if it ever ends! I think because I knew her, the images are more clear.
    But yet this morning I woke up feeling great!!! And all of the sudden....

  • NOT SURE I CAN HANDLE THIS

    Sunday, August 30, 2009 | A Painful story

    So here I sit wondering and worried.  My husband said he had to "go into work" on Sunday to clean up a few things.  He turned his phone off and has been gone for 3 hours.  Where is he?  What is he doing?  Part of his compulsion from the Mirapex is "sexual". Is he with someone?  I don't know.  Even after sitting down with him and explainin...
