I just wanted to say how sorry I am for your loss I have lost both parents in a short time and losing a loved one is never easy; I know that from personal experience and I pray that your faith will create inner peace Until the dark times start to fade draw close to God in prayer, and he will draw close to you.” (James 4:8) I hope, from my heart, that your pain will decrease, and that God will send his blessings to you.

Peggy you are not alone in your grief, I also lost both parents within 23 months.  I know your pain and the shock.  I never even thought of what life would be like if they left me. I guess I hoped they will live forever. My dad passed first and my dear mother died of a massive stroke also.  I am now attending a grief support group and that's helping me.  I just miss them so bad I still can't beleive they are gone.  Just trust and depend on God, he will comfort you.

You'll never get over the passing of your parents because grief is a life long process, but i do feel things will get better.  My mother died in 2009 and my dad in 2008 and I can say, I'm better at times.  It will happen for you also.
