Thread: The Death of a Parent

BD, My mom died in a car accident when I was 19. I know it's definitely hard and sometimes it does help to just vent. It'll be 9 years next month and there are moments that I still forget that she's gone. I know that sounds crazy.

I have days when I want to yell at her even though it's not her fault. I have days I just talk to her because I know she'd know exactly what to do in a given situation. There are times I get SOOOO mad at people who don't want to spend time with their families, or who say mean hateful things about a parent. It's hard because you realize that you would give so much to only have one more day or one more hour or even one more hug and "I love you".

All I can say is that I understand. Everyone's journey with sorrow is different, but there are many of us who have had to endure a loss well before we thought possible. But if you ever need to talk, I'd be more than happy to listen!

*hugs*

HUGs to you...
Your post reminds me of my grandfather and grandmother they died early and the only thing I wanted them to see is to have their first grandchild graduate in college...still pains me when I remember them...
