    • About Me

      I'm 57 years old, married (my second husband), with two children, Lydia (28) and Spencer, my angel, who would have been 22 yesterday, April 18th. Spencer passed from this earth October 16, 2008. He was the most creative, funny, exuberant and effervescent person I ever knew and I miss him every minute of every day.......Lucky to be their Mom!

    • Sorry

      From RememberKala October 25

      I'm sorry yesterday was such a hard day for you, but am glad you found some helpful comments here. I've been to a CF meeting, but understand they can be helpful. I knew I needed more than a once a month meeting, and I liked the idea of being able to sit at my computer at 2am in my pj's and pour my heart out. The sun is shining here and I've been outside walking with my two yorkies. Being in the sunshine always seems to make me happy.

      Treatments

      Crying Working / Worked
      Crying hurts and feels good simultaneously.
      Grief Counseling Considering
      Keeping Busy Somewhat Helpful
      I am a therapist and sometimes I feel good that I'm able to help others; sometimes I resent their petty problems.
      Pets Working / Worked
      My son's cat has undergone a personality transformation. Can't get him out of my lap! His purring soothes me.
      Prayer Working / Worked
      I probably don't pray as much as I used to because I am angry with God. But I do pray and it does help me.
      Reading Working / Worked
      Reading everything on grief and on the afterlife and communications from the "other side". It all helps!
      Scrapbooking Considering
      Too soon to get that organized, but did make a DVD with music, which is wonderful!!
      Support Groups Somewhat Helpful
      Have only been to 3 meetings of TCF.
      Time Not Working
      Time alone solves nothing.......
      Helping Others Working / Worked
      Reaching out to others I know who are grieving. Babysitting helps.
