Open Bereavement
Type: Loss of a ParentI lost my father on February 2, 2009. I still feel lost without him. I always was and always will be a Daddy's girl. Now I am trying to learn how to go on without him. He was always the one to save me. Now I'm having health problems and he's gone. He was always my biggest fan.
Treatments
- Music Working / Worked
- I wrote a song for my dad about growing up with him. He was so proud of that. Remembering how happy that made him helps me.
- Prayer Working / Worked
- I pray all the time. If I didn't I'd never get through my life without my dad.
- Remembering Working / Worked
- I love remembering the stories my dad used to tell me. It makes me smile. I also love sharing them with other family members and my kids.
- Talking Working / Worked
- I talk to him all the time. I really believe he can hear me.
Open Degenerative Joint Disease
I have had scoliosis since age 12 and am now 34. I was just diagnosed with DJD, DDD, syringomyelia, and now degenerative scoliosis. I'm trying to understand all the diagnoses.
