He was a recovering addict for almost 2 years, & had been living with me for the past 7 months. The night before Easter, as we were going to bed, my boyfriend told me about an encounter he had earlier in the evening. He picked up a guy who he had used with in the past, & got him a...

Joe was my earliest memory and my sister and I were in charge of him from a freighting early age. He was our child. My sister and I “shared” him our entire life each having him half the year.

I had an estranged relationship with both parents. One was just how it always was (dad) and one because I had to cut her out (mom). In 2016, dad died (we think aneurysm). Mom followed in 2019 (drank herself to death, quite literally). Mother-in-law in 2020, which didn’t actually affect me except through my husband’s grief (that I didn’t...

My husband of 15+ years passed 9 days later on Inauguration day. On March 7th I had to have my cat of 16+ years put to sleep.

I am lost. I'm numb. I want to help my daddy with his grief because they had a fairy tale soulmate kind of love even after 50 years.

My mother remarried 30+ yrs ago to a wonderful man, who over time became as close if not closer than my biological father.

He's now been diagnosed with ALS, and my mother is planning to join him when he goes, letting her health go and making preparations for self determined end of life (if legally possible), and approaching 80, I'm morally okay with that. I believe everyone should be able to decide if their time has come, and for any reason...

Family has pulled away and the two that live nearby are nearly non existent. I’ve done grief share, tried forming community at church but I feel as if there is no hope. I don’t know what to do and after the deaths I developed a rare anemia which wasn’t helpful.
