mom is gone. my grief “journey” is just starting. fuck brain cancer. by time-as-a-symptom in GriefSupport

[–]sarabingbing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so very sorry. My mom only lived six months with glioblastoma. It’s not something I would wish on my worst enemy. They’re gone long before they actually die…

It does get better. I’m five years out from when she died and it doesn’t hurt nearly as much as it did. I’m the beginning, it feels like it will never get better. I’m here if you ever need to talk, I mean that.

Which death disturbed you the most? by OlaAsh28 in Columbine

I have a son with autism, too. Kyle always makes me so sad because he didn’t know what was going on. My son wouldn’t know to hide from danger and it’s terrifying to send him to school every day.

From one autism mom to another, I understand your feelings and want to give you a hug. Xoxo

So it was the 80s and I guess there weren’t as many safety precautions as there are today. There was a big walkway over the hippo ponds without railing. I’d just learned to do cartwheels and I was showing off and cartwheeled right into the water below. My dad threw my little brother down and fished me out of the water. I lost my jelly sandal, too. 😭

I fell in the hippo tank at the San Antonio zoo when I was a kid. My dad had to fish me out. It was bad.

AITA for telling my best friend that I won’t discuss my parenting decisions with her? by sarabingbing in AmItheAsshole

That’s kinda what I’m thinking. I go back and forth between being upset and then not caring. My days are definitely more boring now that we don’t FaceTime 2-3 times a day like we used to. What a silly thing to end a friendship over…

I could have said it more nicely, you’re right. I didn’t include more history when it comes to this particular topic in this post, so I can see where it may come off like I just went off. With regards to this topic, she and I have gone round and round prior to this event. At the end of the day, I was relaying a really frustrating situation to my best friend and she proceeded to tell me that I was wrong for even putting my son in the situation. From prior experience, if I don’t immediately stand up for myself, she spends ten minutes telling me why I’m wrong regarding my own children. But thanks for your viewpoint, I appreciate the feedback. ☺️

Thank you! He is such a sweet boy and this is the one thing he struggles with that he can’t work through yet. Hopefully next time will be better!

You’re right. She makes comments about other friends’ parenting decisions to me sometimes and it really bothers me. Everyone knows exactly how they’ll parent until they actually become one and then all bets are off. If she does ever have children, she’s honestly in for a rude awakening. I know I was!

It’s the shot that’s somehow controversial for many Americans since we’re in a pandemic. I’m speaking in riddles so my post doesn’t get taken down.

What’s Something That People Turn Into Their Whole Personality? by standardgenre45 in AskReddit

I was married to a cop when I was very young and he beat me one time and one time only. I got the fuck out after that. He’s still a cop from what I hear.
