  1. My friend Lester, whom I lived with for 10 years then moved in with my now husband next door died in October. I still dont believe it. I cant bring myself to delete his phone number from my cell and cant delete him from my email address book. I just dont believe he is gone!! He went so darn fast. I thought I had time, but I didnt. I didnt get a chance to say goodbye. This may sound sick or what have you, but when people die, I need the funeral to be open casket to help me. He was cremated, there was no casket.
  2. Thank you Elaine! I was not expecting a reply like yours. I really thought I was gonna be told to delete them all imediately. Thank you!
  3. Hi everyone! I am having a tough time. 2 friends died recently back to back around October. I still have them in my cell phone contact list and on my email address book. I just cant seem to delete them. Like that will make it real and final. Has anyone had an experience like this?
  4. Hi Everyone! I am glad to have found you. My name is Allison and I have toooo much experience with grieving. The first death was when I was in kindergarten and a classmate was killed by a garbage truck. Since then it seems my entire life (I am now 42) every time I just finally get over a death another one hits!!! It has been this way always, and now that I am older they are coming more and more. I am so tired. And many have been extremely close friends, boyfriends. A few times I was alone with each as they slipped away in my arms. It is sad, but (this may sound strange) it is something special when you hold someone as they leave. Funny thing is I have had several times to watch babbies be born and it is odd but it is a similar feeling. In the section here for I dont know what they call it, but I will write a story about my best friend Dorothy's last day. I hope to get to know some of you and find and give support and comfort. Allison
  5. Hi Melissa! I have dealt with more deaths than a person should. And I know that regardless if it was like your Dad where we know its gonna happen or when it is unexpected the grief, saddness, ect. all emotions are the same. You can never prepare for how you will feel regardless of knowing it is coming. Of course death can bring out the best in some, but sadly inside the family there is usually someone or a few someones who it will bring out the worst. All I can suggest is that you keep close to us here and the counseling you are getting outside and let your family do what they want just dont take anything personal. As for "staying strong" for someone else, Im sorry but that is crap! Everyone has to deal the way they deal and if you need to cry or scream whatever you should not feel you have to suck it up. Feel your feelings as they come and dont worry about who's looking. "To thine own self, be true" My condolences to you Melissa!! Big Hugs! Allison
  6. Several years ago my step mom Donna passed away. My daughter was a baby then. It was like 3am and I was woken up. I went in and checked on her and she was asleep but fussy, then I heard it,,the wind chimes!! (Donna loved and collected wind chimes) I had none nor did anyone who lived there. Then a smile came acrosss my baby's face and she slept soundly. The phone rang moments later saying she passed. If this wasnt cool enough, my brother and sister all in different places and they both heard the wind chimes too!! I believe it was Donna making her goodbyes on her way up.
