Need to vent

Hi my name is Donna, I'm new to this group, wish that non of us had to be in this at all. My father never went to doctors, my entire life, and I'm in my mid 40's, he went to the hosp on a Thursday night with my mother, and by the next Wednesday he was gone. He had a Massive Stroke, I cry every day, my sister and I are not talking, she was evil to me at the hosp, and she is out of my life, don't ever want to talk to her again. My husband has not once asked me how I'm doing, he died on Oct 10th the day before his birthday, and 2 days before his 52nd anniversary to my mom.

I have no one to talk to, only family, and I don't want to upset any of them, about how I'm feeling. I'm angry that he did not take care of himself better, angry that he left us at only 72 years of age, angry that I'm left to take care of my mother, sister lives 3000 miles away. I miss him so much, and hurt so bad. I know that this is all normal, just needed some place to get this out of me. I don't expect anything, from anyone, just wanted to write. Thanks for listening, to me. I'm sorry for all of us, that we have lost someone, how ever it happened, it's sad, and hurtful.

God Bless all of you.
Donna

Big hugs Donna! I am here trying to cheer up but it's so hard... I wish my dad took better care of himself too, I wish he didn't go at 58, it is sad no matter what age! I am listening to xmas music and put up some lights, I want to cry but I can't... :( Big hugs and hang in there! I am sorry your not getting support from your hubby, he might not know what to do...

(*(*(*Ash*)*)*) I am so sorry about your dad, and your relationship with your sister. On top of your grief and the strain of that relationship, you must now take care of mom. We can only take so much before we burst at the seams. Come and vent any time. That's what this place is for, along with the support we get from each other. Huggs, Rainbowmama

I understand all that you have said. I lost my dad at age 67 14 years ago and my son 4 months ago at age 28. It's so hard. The one person I most want to talk to about my loss is my dad and he's gone. You have come to the right place for support and understanding. I feel like DS has saved what sanity I have left. We are all here for you. Vent, find someone to talk to here, or whatever you need and know we care!

Thank you all so much, I'm so sorry for all of your losses. This really is the hardest thing that I have ever had to go through. Just had another argument with H, cried my eyes out, ToSam I think your correct, he just does not know what to say, so he just says nothing. He told me that he thought that I was OK, and that if he said anything, it would stir up emotions, that I had put away, foolish man. Thank you all again, for your words of kindness. Hope we all can enjoy our Thanksgiving Day.

    Hi. I don't really know how this works but today was awful. I was blamed by so many people for doing something I didn't even do. On top of that today, I had a mini panic attack. And to finish the day I had a 2 hour fight with my parents that ended with them telling me to stop being such a sorry human being. So yeah, life sucks right now. I don't really know what else to say but if anyone of...

    I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...
