I e joyed reading your heartfelt words about your sister. It sounds like you had a close loving relationship. I feel this way about my sister. I desire to give you my deep condolence. We never know when the sting of death will overtake us yet there is a beautiful hope for our loved ones which helps us make the next step and the next day. I often think of Jesus words of a guarentee of a resurrection at John 5:28,29. This helps me to endure the pain of losing my loved ones. I hope to communicate with you I. This page soon.
Thank you for opening your heart to us and helping us see your sister thru your eyes
May you have peace
Denise

My dad committed suicide when I was 7 and I'm not 32, and I still have times where I'm angry over it for the fact he took himself out of my life, and now he's missing out on his grandkids life. I know everyone deals with grief differently, some would probably tell you to deal with it and get over it, but I say yes you have the right to still be angry. I know there are times that I am. Thanks for reaching out. There aren't many people I can talk to about all this cause they just don't understand.

Now, today is Survivors of Suicide Day. I think of my friend who committed suicide some time ago now, but I will never forget trying to get his attention "and I could see right through him. I mean he was on empty and help didn't come soon enough.

Reading that messg. made me feel good also knowing that God's love is being shared & lifting people up even while those same people are grieving. It's like one of my on-going prayers "to be blessed so that I will be a blessing to others"- that' you! Sending up a prayer for you today in Jesus' name-Hugs, Christy

At 1:43pm on January 4, 2012, Linda G. said…: Dianne, thank you so much for your words. Everyone of them are so true. It is such a coincident that what you said about mine and Neal's love. At his funeral I spoke and part of what I said was that Neal & mine's life together was a love story and even though he was gone, our love would continue through our sons and their families. I have let God into my life more since Neal has been gone and I pray to him to show me what he has in store for me. I know he will, I just have to listen good. Only in the last 2 to 3 months has my mind been coming out of the blur it has been in since Neal died. It is like reality hit me and I know Neal is gone. I have started to try to eat better and last week I started doing some cleaning. So even though it has only been almost 15 months, I am trying to deal with things day to day. Thank you again for your words and not 2012 is NOT going to suck me in, God is by my side. Hugs

He did have a sickness and he was a loser who only wanted sex! I guess I am wasting my time mourning but the times we did have were good ones. Imaybe I am just jealous that he got to die and I am still here living with the secret! Thanks for helping me but I think I am okay now I am over it!

At 10:09pm on September 12, 2011, Maryann said…: I dont know if you got my reply or not? I guess I am just alone out here! Who i thought was a great friend may not have even liked me maybe he just went through the motions! I am soo confused and will never know but after 4 years of being his friend i should have known he was attached to someone? I just dont know:(

At 1:00pm on September 12, 2011, Maryann said…: I am doing better! Our friendship was a secret so I will never know what happened to him. I have a lot of mixed emotions like how could he leave me behind and really dont have anyone to talk to about it I am mourning by myself and it really is making me crazy inside! Does died unexpectedly while at work mean suicide, heart attack or accident? Did he suffer for long? I have all these questions that are unanswered. Thank you for being my friend! I hope this is confidential

At 1:45am on September 5, 2011, Donna Moore said…: Dianne, thank you for be-friending me. I signed up a few weeks ago but am having trouble opening up. When I sometimes feel I could talk on here then I can't get a chance to be alone. My son's death has been my worst nightmare come true. He was murdered in March this year. My life is up side down. There is so much to say. So much grief, anger, sadness at every body and every thing. I do not even know who I am anymore other than a mother who lost one of her children.I am so shattered

At 7:02am on August 29, 2011, William Kotowski said…: Dianne, thanks for your friendship. I read your post and must said I am finding hard to keep my faith. The only thing that keeps me going is the hope that I'll be able to be with Don again. It has been 9 months but I am just now feeling it sinking in that he is never coming home. I think the last 9 months I was in a mental coma. If God has a plan for me I wish He would tell me so it would make sense to me!

At 12:34am on August 29, 2011, Maryann said…: Thank you Dianne i hope this is private because i shouldnt have had these feelings for the person I did!

At 12:30am on August 29, 2011, Maryann said…: I am not sure if what i said went through!

At 12:49am on July 8, 2011, Rev. Dr. Alice E. Gibson said…: Thank you Dianne for your kind warm words of encouragement. I just had another loss just a few minutes ago. My mom's only surviving sibling, Erma Hester just passed. She is in Denver, Colorado. I am going to talk to you at another time about my concerns.

At 7:45am on June 19, 2011, Rev. Dr. Alice E. Gibson said…: Thank you Dianne for such a warm welcome to your group. I lost my mom last September.She was 88yrs old. Had she lived 6 months longer, she would have been 89yrs old. It was hard for me to grieve, because being the oldest in the family, as well as being a pastor; everybody look to me to support & keep them encouraged. Mom lived a long fruitful life, and now she is resting from her labors, and I'm pressing my way home to see her again. I wish you and your family an enjoyable weekend. Stsy Blessed. see me on facebook@ Alice Lindsay-Gibson

At 7:03am on June 19, 2011, Rita Doyle said…: Hi Dianne,

Thank you for being in touch. My days go along. I have learned that sometimes, I just have to put aside my grief and think of other things. When I feel that wave approaching, ready to overwhelm me, I tell myself, "Later. I am going to think about something else for now." But my brother is dead. He died alone, and lay alone for days before we found him. Now I have no brother and I never will again. I miss him so much and wish I could have done something to help him.

We are having summer weather here, which I love. I like the longer days. How about you? How are you doing?
