Honsetly I dont know,
But support them,
Be there for them to talk to,
Constetly reminde them that there spirit lives on and is in a better place,
And that they still have life ahead of them….
the thing is this will take time for you to be able to heal. you just have to remember the good times you had when they were still alive. contact me if you would like to discuss this further. i am so sorry that you have had to go through this. my heart goes out to you.
This question is difficult as I experienced the loss of 2 parents within a 5 week period. However, I nursed them both for many years before their departure,
I remember my parents every day and find the memory difficult to part with.
I can only express the feeling of love so I’m hoping that this will suffice.
Love and joy
Beth
you will find comfort in psalms 23. along with that god gave us time. time heals our wounds. we must go on, accept that the loved one is gone. time replaces the past with the future.
be happy for the parent that no longer has to suffer. be thankful that the parent is now in a better place free of suffering free of pain a place where there are no tears. realize that the guilt or grief you feel is not for the lost loved one. it is for yourself that you feel sorry. can you not see past your own feelings ? it should not be about you. celebrate the merciful hand that delivered your loved one. celebrate the life they lived by speaking of their good deeds, as long as you have memories of them then they are still alive, rather than mourn your loss of their physical presence. now you have an angel, feel protected and loved. and do not feel bad for past mistakes, you are loved for you. your faults don’t take from you, they add to you, they are just a part of you. real love doesn’t part itself out. real love takes the bad with the good.
your loved one only wants for you to feel love and joy. not agony and pain emotional or otherwise
stacy.
It has been many years since my Mother passed, I still think of her and how I miss her! I was totally devastated, confused, and felt I had lost the only person I believed loved me. I was 17 and did not know what I was feeling waqs called grief. People sometimes find it too difficult to deal with emotions while the loved one is in the process of passing. Sometimes we are scared and angry, which can bring out words that are not being understanding. Most, feel the presence of guilt, this adds to the grieveing process more pain, more tears, and regrets.There is a book written byPATSY CLAIRMONT “MENDING YOUR HEART IN A BROKEN WORLD”
( Finding Comfort In The Scriptures). I was given this book, after my son died, very good reading! I am having a difficult time this month he will be gone two years Aug 30,06. I say this, if you do not grieve, you will not find healing it is through allowing your grief that each emotion is dealt with, ignore it and you will find it (EMOTIONS). to continue to be triggered by situations in your life! It is is ok to feel your life is missing the joy, after all you have losta very special loved one. There are anger, depression, not remembering tasks needed to be done, confusion, feeling as though you will lose your mind, going places that play music that person liked, going to the store, crying anytime and anywhere. Please do not think your life is over, it will be hard and painful, but feel, feel, feel! Go to a group that will have people there who have gone through this, COMPASSIONATE FRIENDS IS a National organization who meet once a month, you can locate it on the computer, hospitals have hospice grief groups, check this type of thing out! Psalm 56:8 Ecclesiastes 3:1-2 Joshua1: 5 Matthew11:28- 30, look in the back of your Bible for verses that comfort you! Do talk to someone who will listen and comfort you in this time of grief. Your parent still loved you even if you were not always supported, i do know this because no matter what my son did in his life, I loved and love him still! I have found that a parent does not stop loving you maybe they do not approve of some things but they love you just the same. ASK JESUS TO COME INTO YOUR HEART, YOU ACCEPT HIM AS LORD OF YOUR LIFE! People can give you support but trust in God even if you are feeling angry at God. I send you my condolences and wish you peace and love, for we do not have to know someone in order to feel their pain. I have been their, it will change and you will realize grieving is in your own time and way, not anyone else’s time!
