Hey everyone. I know I haven’t been as actively lately. As some know my sister in law was really sick and I had been helping take care of her.

Unfortunately this morning she passed away. I’m numb and hurting, I go through periods were I want to eat everything and periods where I doubt anything will taste good.

I could really use some support and hugs right now.

Not sure if this was the right subgroup, but it’s the one I was most active on.

    You made the first step to a healing process by reaching out to others for support. As, the young lady stated stay hydrated if you can't do anything else. Write out your feeling allow yourself to go through the greiving process cry and eat whatever eases the pain. It's going to take time to heal, I still hurt from my loss and it's been 28 years. If you believe in prayer, pray and cry out to your higher power. It will get easier as time passes think of all the happy and fun time you guys spent together. Remember she absent from the body but is always present in your heart. Agape Love my sister

    Elphie, I’m so sorry for your loss. I lost my Dad tragically in ‘09, and I was so numb, I’d forget to eat. And when I did eat, it was just because I was going through the motion.

    One day at a time. One foot in front of the other. You have family that love and support you, and an online family that is sending out love, prayers, and support.

    Feel free to vent, that helps too... *hugs*

    I am sorry to hear about your loss. It has been and will continue to be a roller-coaster of emotions. Just do whatever you have to to take care of yourself and get through this difficult time.
