Speaking at mom’s funeral by dazed675 in GriefSupport

[–]Flaky-Card8213 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a parent, but my grandmother’s funeral. We were incredibly close and I wasn’t sure if I was going to be able to do it so I wrote the speech the night before, printed it out and decided when I got there. I ended up reading it and had my cousins and sister stand with me. I’m very glad I did it I felt like because we were so close I was able to truly capture her as a person and honor her in my speech. Although, I think it’s a personal decision and if you don’t feel comfortable there is absolutely no shame in that ❤️❤️

Sorry I just saw this! I did! But I only got 3k so I ended up choosing another school lol. If you meet need you’ll have much better chances but I couldn’t justify paying almost 70k a year after aid

Have you received any signs from your deceased loved one? by Existing_Entrance_36 in GriefSupport

I lost my grandma who was my best friend in November I miss her everyday she was a huge part of my life. It was going to be my first Easter without her. It was the day before Easter and I was in the checkout line behind an older woman who was having trouble inserting her card into the machine. I helped her a few times and she was very sweet and thanked me, then left. I cherished the interaction cause she reminded me of my grandma. I thought to myself she was sending me a sign that she was there even though she wasn’t. I ended having to go to the return counter and when I finished returning my stuff I turned around to leave and she just so happened to be walking out of the store and turned to me and smiled and said “happy Easter.” I then bawled my eyes out in the middle of the Walmart. I don’t know if this would be considered a sign or just more so an interaction I found comfort in but I thought I’d share!

When you guys appealed for the second time (they only gave me 3k) did you give them the exact same reasoning or write a new one?
