Lost my brother

Feeling some kinda way. Lost my brother last Friday, June 9, 2017, one week ago today. It's like a chunk of my heart has been pulled out! I don't know what to do. What to feel, I'm just here, looking. Sometimes I feel completely empty, others sad, mad, helpless, or any combination of emotions.

Sorry for your loss. It isn't easy dealing with a loved one's death, we understand how it feels and are always here to listen.

A chunk of your heart was certainly pulled away... and will make so much more sense to you if you care to investigate the work of Dr, Michael Newton. Read, or get an audiobook copy of his first book called 'Journey of Souls'. Your brother is right next to you now,whispering: GET THAT BOOK.

Big hug for you Tams..... I am so very sorry for your loss and your pain..... Grief is as you wrote a combination of emotions.....and for me it was also sort of a shock even though I knew it was coming

I'm glad that you're here..... Another hug and a blessing......xo

Thank you all. Today has been a little bit better. If I sit too long, that's when it hits the hardest and I have a hard time getting back up. But thanks be to God, I've been up today.

I have lost 2 siblings in 10 months. I know exactly how you feel. I was at my sisters side when she died, an experience I will never forget. It's only been a week for you. How you feel is normal and there is no special way to grieve or time frame. Allow yourself to feel sad. But don't sink like I have. Bc even with a therapists help, I am struggling and considering meds. Allow people "in" to help you. Try "GriefShare" it's relifious based but has helped me with its inspirational emails. .cut yourself some slack, too.

    Once again I've had a fever today. I'm not going to the hospital because that's a huge waste of time but I did schedule a dr appointment for Wednesday afternoon.
