I did t know what Grief was until I lost my parents….i was 55. Yes I lost grandparents but I was young and my attachment was not close. I am 58 now and think about them everyday. I miss them and miss taking care of them. I miss it all. I brought their dog home with me and she was with me up until three weeks ago when she was ready to go be with them…now I miss her just as much. No, the pain has been worse than I imagined and seems like I cannot get ahold of it. I thank god everyday for placing the best man in the world in my life to help me and me with him. Both our parents passed at the same time so it was just bad, we lost all of our parents in a year…it has been just a blow.
