Good afternoon,
I am brand new to this group. Thank u for accepting me. My husband Bill died in a snowmobile accident 1/15/2016. I was with him. We have been together since we were 15yrs old. Married for 28years. Have one daughter Sam who is 24. Her Dad died on her birthday. We (Sam & I) have been making decent progress in our grief/mourning process, but had a rather large set back yesterday and this is how I happened to find this group, in hope that it can bring additional guidance, understanding and support. My niece who is getting married this year is not happy with the fact that my daughter (her closest cousin) is not able to find joy of being involved in this wedding. My niece has admitted to being selfish with her emotions/feelings and WILL NOT accept the fact that we are grieving and NOT LISTEN to the fact that this death has effected every aspect of our lives. She is so mad that I have brought this to the discussion of my husband's death being my #1 reason of not being able to fully enjoy this upcoming wedding. I have apologized for my grief, which I know I probably should not have to do, but I did. Most of my immediate family have not been supportive of my daughter and I through the last year and a half. They are "those group of ppl" who think we should have "moved on by now". The only thing my niece is concerned about is HER WEDDING and is now actually complaining to others that my husband died. Like it was a choice that I wanted. NOT! I am in complete disbelief of this situation. I am a person who tries to see the good in everyone. But this situation is making me physically sick and mad to the point where it will end up setting me back from all the progress that I have made. Looking for help and suggestions....
