I'll be flipping through the channels on TV and come across a movie I haven't seen in awhile; or I'll pick up a book I haven't read in awhile; or I'll find an article of clothing in my closet that I haven't worn in awhile. And I'll think to myself, 'The last time I saw this / read this / wore this, Sydney was still alive." It's like everything is a reminder of that happier phase of my life when my baby was still here with me. And instead of smiling at the happy memory that is conjured, I just feel so sad that I'm not in that phase of my life anymore. Just wondering if anyone else experiences this "The last time I did this . . ." phenomenon.
I have been having a lot of trouble with my grief again lately. It will be 12 weeks on Tuesday since my Sydney passed and I hate it. I miss her so much it is killing me still. |

Jess,
Yes, I do that two weeks after I had to let Schmendrik go. I find myself being startled when I think I hear a sound he would make settling in to whatever room I'm sitting in. I know that he's gone, but my brain doesn't care, and I turn to look at him. I'm really sorry for your loss. I just hope I'm as strong as you are and can make it ten more weeks. I will pray for you also when I ask God to help heal my broken heart. Regards, Eagle -------------------- No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may.
