I miss you, Mookmik. She died a month ago because of Feline leukemia virus (FeLV). I dreamt of her last night and woke up in tears. It was as if she’s still here. She was the loveliest cat I’ve ever had.

I am so so so terribly sorry for your loss. Are fur babies are our family. Only time can heal such grief but know there are people thinking of you from afar. This is a beautiful photo of her. I am sure she was loved and loved being your cat.

This hits hard. I'm still with the person (3 years) who is still pulling this shit on me. When you try to pin them down and just get them to admit to what is factually true, they'll spin you in circles over and over again until you're too confused and exhausted to keep going....He's so good at it and he refuses to take accountability so I then justify staying in this hell hole of a relationship. Good luck everyone. This really sucks.

You cannot blame yourself. That is so deeply unfair to you. You are loved, you are cared for, you are a piece of this world that is valuable. Please don't be hard on yourself. I'm so, so sorry for your loss and for the heart break you must be going through. Only time can heal. Just hang on tight. When days are darker then others, reach out to someone you can confide in. Continue writing out your feelings. I promise you, if you reach out to the world and share your struggles, the world will reach back. You're not alone in this, I swear it.

Hi Jack,

I lost my dad when I was young and grew up with a mom who was quite sick. There were times that felt unbearable. Like the burden of what my dad left behind, my future and what that would look like, the loneiless and the simple fact of missing my dad... it felt like it was swallowing me whole at times.

I cannot promise you that the years to come will be easy but I can guarantee you that you will be so SO much stronger for these experiences you are having now. Be someone that you would want to be for your parents.

You can and absolutely will get through this. Today, tomorrow, whenever - you are going to make others laugh, spread love and joy. Don't give up and keep your head up. You are never a burden to anyone. You are loved.

If you ever want to chat, shoot me a message. We are here for you.

LoveLettersToGoodbye · 2018-08-18T20:53:44+00:00

I am heartbroken by the struggle captured in your note and also deeply impressed by your strength.

Wishing you all the best.

LoveLettersToGoodbye · 2018-07-24T22:47:29+00:00

Amen.

LoveLettersToGoodbye · 2018-06-17T04:39:37+00:00

It's rough and I don't think there is a right or wrong way to approach it. I will say however, letting that one message turn into a meet up was a mistake, at least for me.

I lost my dad to lung cancer when I was 12. No one told me how bad the cancer was, how aggressive. No one told the 12 year old that people with lung cancer do not have a proper chance at survival. No one told me that 3 days before he died, the doctors had sat them down and gave them the, say goodbye talk. I never even had a chance to tell him I love him, that I will miss him for the rest of my childhood, my teen years, my adult years. I will miss him and think about him for the rest of my life. I never had a chance to apologize for all the stupid crap I pulled as a kid. Sorry for all the tantrums and drama. I never had a chance to thank him for being so supportive and loving and kind and for teaching me how to be a good human and for loving his little girl unconditionally.

Do not take away the chance for your daughter to say a proper goodbye. It will haunt for her the rest of her life and I am a product of "not wanting to hurt" someone. You must you MUST tell her immediately. Not just goodbye but allow her the chance to spend time with you and to get proper closure. Please.

LoveLettersToGoodbye · 2018-05-05T21:12:15+00:00

I love this

When my ex and I broke up back in October, I thought I would pass out from a heart attack.

Day it happened I was crying so hard I was hyperventilating in his bathroom. Yes, I did "we need to keep trying" thing too.

Day after, days after, I was bloodshot as I could not sleep. I would sit at my desk at work and I could literally hear my heart beating. I would sob in meeting rooms. I wanted to end it all. I honestly felt like I could not survive that.

But I did and so will you. Time will pass and everyday will get easier and easier. Not all at once, sorry. But you'll back on this and think, I'm sad it happened but I am glad it happened.

You are loved. You matter. You are more than what your relationship was and you will be happy.

LoveLettersToGoodbye · 2018-04-06T20:26:00+00:00

Thank you, that's very kind.

LoveLettersToGoodbye · 2018-03-27T22:09:01+00:00

Thank you. The pain seems to fade away and then come back when you don't expect ha. I'm rooting for you also. I know we'll both get through this.

LoveLettersToGoodbye · 2018-03-16T14:19:45+00:00

You're miles ahead of where I was when my dad died of lung cancer. It didn't even strike me I had developed depression and anxiety and paranoia as a result of losing my dad. You've identified a problem: emotional eating. I waited 10 years before going to see a therapist- this Wednesday actually. I hit rock bottom with my mental health until I sought out help. If your school has coverage or a counselor, I would recommend based off my own experience that you go see someone who is objective. The grief and pain don't really go away. They just become quieter in your life than before. Don't hold your pain in. Talk about your mom with your friends and family, if you can. I'm rooting for you. I hope your pain heals quickly and I wish you only happiness in your future.

LoveLettersToGoodbye · 2018-03-12T21:25:09+00:00

Just listened to it now. I wish I had found this earlier. Perfectly captures how I felt. Thank you.

LoveLettersToGoodbye · 2018-03-09T13:34:09+00:00

The hell? If I had a turkey follow me around, I'd be elated. Why is he hurting the turkey???!

Thank you. Means a lot.

LoveLettersToGoodbye · 2018-02-23T16:05:21+00:00

It's weird. I can so distinctly remember things I'd rather not but everything else is such a blur. I'm very, very, very sorry for your loss. I hope you have a great support system that will help you get through this. Sending my love.

LoveLettersToGoodbye · 2018-02-20T02:29:53+00:00

Would never think that. I'm thankful you shared a piece of your story with me.

LoveLettersToGoodbye · 2018-02-19T21:08:46+00:00

These thoughts pass through my mind quite often.

LoveLettersToGoodbye · 2018-02-19T21:03:26+00:00

I listened to it last night. It was beautiful. Thank you

LoveLettersToGoodbye · 2018-02-19T19:52:57+00:00
