Vent away! That's what this is for. 4 months is not a lot of time in the grieving process. Cut yourself some slack. Vent anytime. Don

A friend of mine put me on to a similar thing and I filled it out and gave copies to my three children. Neat idea. Don

I agree with Ginny. I did not want to be alone on my wife's first birthday after her death. Other men may prefer not to remember it. Don

A guy got impatient at the slow traffic through a subdivision and began dashing in and out of the lanes at a fast pace. Luckily, he didn't cause an accident. Don

You are still very early in your grieving. Try not to be too hard on yourself. Good move to seek outside help. I moved right into a grief group that helped me immensely. Blessings. Don

Yes, Val, I can understand. My father died when I was 23 and my mother died a year later. It was before I was married. So my life with my parents was completely separate from my life with Lucie and my own family. When I married Lucie, I gained a mother-in-law who was like a second mother to me and I had her in my life for 34 years. (Lucie's dad died when she was 16.) So I can see short range and long range parent loss.
It has been hard for me to understand the deep grief I see when others lose parents after having them in their lives for a good time. I tend to think, "But you had them for so many years with so much life. I would love to have had that kind of time." But I have come to understand their view that their parents were in their lives for so long, it leaves a very big hole. So, we all need to grieve no matter when our parents leave us. It is a dramatic change, no matter when. Don
