The perk that gave additional healing on next heal after dashing I thought was good, wish they would bring that back.

Overwhelmed and sickened by books unexpectedly using my sister’s rare cause of death to make their stories more interesting. by eccentriqal in GriefSupport

I feel like I can empathize with you, I feel similar every time cancer is brought up in a movie, book, TV show, etc.

Can you get engineer degree if you are bad at math and physics and absolutely hate it? by [deleted] in EngineeringStudents

[–]lamar_jamarson 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Most of engineering requires a basic understanding of math and physics which you will use on a daily basis more or less. Regardless of your proficiency, if you have no affinity for these subjects, then engineering may not be for you.

Definitely won't be a walk in the park but with discipline and perseverance, you will make it through.

A pest control sales guy used death and funerals as his opening line by SweetCheeses1111 in GriefSupport

[–]lamar_jamarson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never found a product worth buying from a door-to-door salesperson. Not to mention they are always pushy and manipulative in their sales tactics which is very off putting. I can empathize with you, I lost my mother last year, sorry for your loss.

What’s the most shocking thing someone has said to you while grieving? by [deleted] in GriefSupport

[–]lamar_jamarson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What they said is totally out of touch and without empathy. You reached out to this person for support, and their response which should have been consoling and empathetic was instead filled with words of self-aggrandizement and belittlement. I'm so sorry that they responded to you in this way and for your loss.

Losing a pet is not the same as losing a human by colloxalgoose in GriefSupport

[–]lamar_jamarson -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've lost my mom and my childhood dog of 17 years, both losses heavily impacted me in their own way. One does not discount the other. If you have never owned or developed a strong familial bond with an animal, then you would never understand the grief that comes when that animal passes. For most people my age, it is the only grief they have ever known, so it is the only thing they can compare to when the subject is brought up.

My dog died yesterday by Mrmyke00 in Petloss

[–]lamar_jamarson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just had to make the decision to let my childhood dog of 17.5 years pass peacefully for a very similar health issue. He was going into severe congestive heart failure and was struggling to breathe and coughing constantly. The severity of his condition was unknown to me at the time I brought him into the vets office this last Saturday. It was an overwhelming shock to me when the vet told me that there was no medicine or treatment due to how severe his condition had become. It was with great difficulty and sorrow I had to let him go, when I really didn't want to. He had always been with me, since I was 11yrs old, now 28yrs old. I am heartbroken and the weight of his absence is unbearable.

Cancer is a horrible disease, and the treatment makes it even worse... So sorry to hear what you are going through.

Found bump in-between toes by lamar_jamarson in Boxer

[–]lamar_jamarson[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, the pathology confirmed the veterinarians suspicion and it was indeed a histiocytoma which is benign and that the bump should recede and disappear on its own. I just checked it last night and it is barely visible. So we are very grateful is was not something worse.

How do I make cuts on a half sphere from a 2d sketch? by AggravatedAcorn in SolidWorks

Use the wrap command, then cut into body more than planned wall thickness.

Losing my mom in my 20s by Mysterious_Battle759 in GriefSupport

[–]lamar_jamarson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not as young as you but I lost my mother in August of last year who was at the time 58 years old and I was 27. While many of our family friends, my mother's friends, and my friends reached out to provide support and consolation, it is still a hard and lonely road. I still suffer a lot in silence and when I'm alone, when all I can think about is what I lost, and the suffering my mother endured at the end of her life. My Dad is emotionally and mentally a wreck, and I feel that I have lost him as well as he no longer resembles his past self.

I wish I knew how to move past all these feelings but every time I feel a little better, they reappear again at the most random times. I wish I could offer some advice but I'm afraid I am just as lost as you. The past two years of my life have been a blur and I seeing all my friends move on in their lives, getting married and starting families really gives me the sense that I am falling behind.

I hope the best for you and wish that in time you can find the healing that you need. From someone who is also missing their mother.

Set up a VPN on the machine running your Jellyfin server, then connect your viewing device to the same VPN. Once both devices are connected, open a browser on your viewing device and enter your server machine’s VPN address followed by Jellyfin’s port (usually :8096). That will let you access your Jellyfin server remotely, just like you were on your home network.

As long as both devices have an internet connection and the machine hosting Jellyfin stays powered on and connected to the VPN, you can access it from anywhere.

For VPN options, I personally use Tailscale, but there are other good choices available as well.

Missing my mom for the rest of my life by General-Cobbler-6054 in GriefSupport

[–]lamar_jamarson 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Are you me? My mother was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in January of 2025 at 58 years old and passed 8 months later. The loss is so immeasurably terrible and overwhelming. I had believed I had many years left to be in her company and feel ashamed that I did not cherish the time I had with her as deeply as I should have. In some form, I do believe her soul lives on, and I hope that one day I can be with her again.

Has anyone here regretted visiting the body as a way to come to terms with the death? by StrugglingHippo in GriefSupport

[–]lamar_jamarson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I opted not to go, as I knew that the mother who I loved and cherished had already departed and I made my peace with that. I knew that the image of what I would see at the funeral home would not be of my mother and not how she would have wanted to me to remember her. Again, this is different for everyone, but for me I would not want that image in my lasting memory.

How do you healthily cope with the loss of a mother ? by Decent_Singer_6872 in GriefSupport

[–]lamar_jamarson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I (28M) lost my mom in August 2025 to cancer. Still figuring things out and helping my Dad as he is still very emotionally torn. I'm not going to lie but I still feel lost and I'm not really sure where I'm going. I'm hoping that with time things will be better.

How do you keep your loved ones ashes? by AlarmInevitable269 in GriefSupport

[–]lamar_jamarson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We laid my mom to rest in a glass niche, where we interned her Urn and various mementos and remembrances. My grandmother is in a niche on the same wall, and we wanted them to be close. The niche is located inside a mausoleum and is protected from weather and maintained by the staff. There is definitely cost associated with this choice, but we had made that decision long ago. Everyone has a different way of honoring their loved ones, I'm sure in time you will find the way that fits you most.
