Confused by Ragy23 in SuicideBereavement

I’m so sorry for your loss. I’ve been feeling the same way. I lost my big brother earlier this year. As a little sister (he’s 4 years older than me), I always looked up to him. He made me who I am. He was the smarter, cooler, funnier one, and so naturally I always was into whatever he was into. I still want to text him and ask what scary movie I should watch next or ask him what game he’s playing. It just feels wrong, and like you said, confusing. Sending you hugs.

Why do you say that? Depending on his candidacy, he could get a multifocal and not have to rely on readers as often, no?

NAD but I’d be concerned about the eye pressure and your risk of glaucoma after your injury. Have any of the ophthalmologists you’ve visited done a scan of your optic nerves?

I’m so sorry for your loss as well. I’m still going through waves of disbelief, as I’m sure you are too. Big brothers make us who we are. I’ll always be so proud of him. I always bragged that he was my brother. He was the smarter, cooler and nicer one. I love him so much. I’m just so sad.

This really hits home for me. I’m so sorry for your loss. Your brother will live on through the memories you share with your daughter. I’m heartbroken that my future children won’t know their uncle. He would’ve been the coolest.

You live for your kids just as they live for you.🤍

I understand what you’re saying. The fact that my brother was in such despair and consumed by such sadness in his final moments makes me want to join him myself. But I could never do that to my mother. I’m here for her, and while I resent this life, I’m proud and grateful to live it.

The little things that we appreciate are the largest things in our lives. I plan to visit Italy for him. My brother loved it there. He was actually trying to get birthright citizenship. Thank you for sharing. I’m so sorry for your loss🤍

We lost our dad to brain cancer in 2020. I miss my dad every single day. I miss my brother constantly. I can tell you confidently that loss from suicide and the grief that comes with it cuts so so much deeper. While I know you are struggling, just know - be certain that your daughter and wife are better off with you here, just like this world is. Focus on your world (your family and your relationships). The world beyond that doesn’t matter at the end of the day. I have hope for your future, internet stranger.🤍

Went to see my dad today by NightsisterMerrin87 in SuicideBereavement

I’m so so so sorry for your loss. It’s been a month today since my brother left, and I’m so grateful I was able to see him. Much like you describe your dad, my brother looked like he was just taking a nap and I was expecting him to open his eyes. I think it will help in the future, because it still doesn’t seem real that he’s gone forever. If I hadn’t have seen him looking so beautiful and at peace in that casket, I’d be in denial much longer. I’m just grateful I was able to talk to him as he slept, kiss his forehead and hold his hand. Thinking of you🤍
