@marcia101 Loss and grief certainly accumulates over a lifespan and being the last to meet your fate has to wear on a person.

May I ask how your life has changed since the multiple losses you have endured?

Hello. You wrote: "May I ask how your life has changed since the multiple losses you have endured?" Orphaned at a young age, I always felt a core of loss and emptiness. In the last few years I lost several close family members, some quite old and others not so much. Losing both of my siblings was the hardest as they were the last ties to immediate family, keepers of history and confidences.

I have dear friends and close cousins but that is not the same as the history of family.

I cope, get depressed and sad, get lonely for them, and can smile at certain memories. I'll never be the same as I was even 5 years ago.

I feel my life will never be the same. My daughter was so close to me and I feel Ilost without her. l also lost a sister in April due to illness and my husband has brain cancer. The doctors say that he my only has about another 3 months. I am on an emotional roller coaster.
