Cat_Lady Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 I have really been struggling since Mom passed on Jan 4th this year. My family does not seem to understand my grief but I have reconnected with an old friend and he lost his Dad in December 2010. It seems we have a lot of things in common despite the passing of many years without contact. Does this seem normal? I cannot seem to connect with my family but I can with this long ago close friend?

Guest Nicholas Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 I think this is perfectly understandable, for, whereas I have had tremendous support from my friends, I feel a close connection with a lady I have never met but have only emailed. I discovered a while back that she, too, had lost her son and so she knows exactly how I am feeling and is able to offer practical advice. Only those who have been bereaved can truly understand the pain. Good luck. Nicholas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
