I know no one replyed to this, and I don't really blame them but..

I've gone through another loss. Holly Smart, my and my sister's grade six teacher, died. She was an amazing woman, the best teacher I ever had. She taught me so much more than it was her job to. I honestly loved her. And she had breast cancer that limited people knew about. And a day or so before she was going to tell everyone that she had cancer that she was going to die of eventually, her heart stopped.

So I'm not doing so well again..today it's been two weeks since she died. I'm guessing around 8 or 9 months since Ginger died. My parents are trying to find a crisis worker, but I really dont think I'll talk much..


I think it would be a great idea to talk to a crisis worker. I went to a grief counselor right after my soul mate Callaway died, that was the middle of September and I'm still going and it has helped tremendously. I don't think I could have made it thru without her, this forum, and my friends and family. If you go you will be surprised that just talking can really help.

I will be praying that you find peace soon.

As a counselor myself, I can recommend highly that you see someone compassionate and qualified. It's the perfect time and place to let all of those feelings out--a good grief counselor will let you be yourself TOTALLY and not try to change you or your feelings. It's a great way to "vent." I wish I had a grief counselor myself right now! (I do have a counselor, and we DO talk about Poppers and Ladywolf, but that's not the main thrust of our discussion.)

I too am praying for peace for you, hon...

Hugs--Margi and Ladywolf

Sometimes, after loss after loss, you just feel like giving up. And for good reason. I mean, when everything you love keeps dying, why do you try?

Another family friend died of brain cancer a few months ago, I didn't post it because..I don't know why. But now another family friend has been diagnosed with cancer. And I cant stand it. I don't want to watch everyone around me die. I don't want to see the world go to hell. I just feel like screaming. But I distract myself. Some ways I'm proud of, like starting a charity that's just in the beginning stages. Others, I'm not so proud of. But anyways. I can't believe it's almost been a year since Ging died.. I'm slowly recovering. Maybe there's hope after all

Absolutely there is...we all go through times when we feel like there isn't, but keep telling yourself how lucky you are to have been loved by those you've lost (be it fur babies or people). I'm sorry for all the loses you've experienced lately...unfortunately part of life is death, but never stop loving life. I will be thinking of you.

Hugs,
Brutus' Mom

It's been one year.
One.
Whole.
Year.
Why do I feel only...slightly better?
