Hi All:
Had a really difficult day today
It is still so very hard to accept.
Today was an extremely bad day for me as if I just realized she
was gone! I need help and people to talk to. I needed it today. Its been bad enough but today for some reason it was just horrible. I woke up crying and like ‘suddenly’ realized my daughter was gone. She passed June 3. I cried almost all day til I gave myself a terrible headache. Everything today reminded me that she was gone. Everything. I broke down crying all day, husband tried to comfort me but I kept it up. Felt ill, my face hurt! I could NOT believe she was really gone. Am I going to have days like this? It was horrible. My eyes ached, I couldnt have lost her. I couldn't eat, I just cried! I still cant seem to realize shes gone! Horrible day today.
I dont hear from many people on Mayo Connect. Where do I go so people can write me so we can share stories and seek help from each other. I guess im still unsure how this works.
Thank you.
I cant sleep so thats why im writing now. Its 1:00 am.

@ihtak46 Kathi, my heart hurts for you. I honestly cannot even begin to comprehend the grief you must feel. If it was my daughter I know I too would be inconsolable.
I agree with what others have mentioned, have you sought out some group grief counseling? I think that might be very helpful and supportive for you. I think what @merpreb said is very true too. The grief will never go away but over time will become less sharp.
Prayers are with you in this horribly difficult time.
Hugs, JK
