angelb Posted May 24, 2005 Share Posted May 24, 2005 Hi Everyone - Its been quite a while since I have been here - I found myself becoming more and more depressed re-living the whole experience each time there was bad news on the board, so I had to take a break to regain my life and strat participating in my family again. Today is not a good day - there is no celebrating, no smiles - just a great deal of memories. He dies almost 4 hours ago a year past. Its unfortunate becuase I am unable to be with my mom today - I know she is mouring just as hard today that she did last year. Why we remember at milestones - a year - two years - I dont know - really I know its just another day - no big deal, but I can help but feel very sad today. ANyways - Thanks for all you have done to help me express my thoughts and feelings - it has been a blessing for me.

cathy Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 Angela, It really is not just another day, to others but certainly not to you..You're right all those awful memories are too hard to bare..I'm sorry I didnt catch your post yesterday when you were feeling so bad.. I want you to know you are not alone and to tell you for many the anticipation of the day is usually worse than the day itself, I wish I could have told you that before yesterday.. The whole journey doesnt end when our loved one has passed, it just continues into a different chapter.. I hope today is a bit better for you and soon you can find some peace and healing...

KatieB Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 Adding my best and prayers for you too. It's very normal to feel sad on this day (yesterday). We are 19 months out and there are just some days that those memories and the sadness are just overwhelming. I hope your good memories, the love and spirit of your dad that live in your heart, brings you some peace. Hugs, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daddys Little Girl @ 35! Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 Angela, my dad died May 23, 2005. I'm not doing real well right now but I was just thinking that since I'm a milestone girl myself, maybe we can see eachother right here next year! At this point I can't see a year, a decade, or even a lifetime filling that gap of such a great man and I'm sure that is just exactly how you feel too! Keeping you in my prayers!

osirus226 Posted June 11, 2005 Share Posted June 11, 2005 I know this is really really late, but I just want to express my sympathy for the loss of your father. Our parents have a special place in our hearts and when we lose them there is nothing that can replace that big gap that is left. 1 year seems like forever but at the same time seems like just yesterday. It really isnt just another day. Kelly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
