MDJunction to me

grandmasylvia"MDJ has been "a soft place to fall" for me as Dr Phil says. I have this very painful rare disease Dercum's Disease and take comfort in finding others here who share their knowledge and compassion. Many
members have helped me just by understanding my anguish and validating
my pain. We are working together to encourage research toward a cure.

Dear Anna, I am so sorry for all you and Jack have suffered. You were so wonderful to him and supported him physically and emotionally to the very end when everyone else had jumped ship. No one could have done more for him than you and I hope you find some measure of peace in knowing that. Lisa

Thank you all for your prayers & good wishes..it's been a tough week, as you can imagine. Yesterday (Sunday the 12th) was the first time I've felt anything close to 'normal' since Jack's death. Funny how we think we're prepared for something like this, and when it happens, we're in shock. Felt like I was in a heavy fog all week, but couldn't cry..so strange. Even at the funeral, which was beautiful, personal and very touching, (if I do say so) I was 'strong' and didn't cry much. Finally, on Saturday I fell apart, out of the blue. Thankfully, I was in my livingroom and my son was outside at the time. Maybe that's why I felt so much better and at peace the next day. I realize this is not the end of my grief, but I also know that I've been grieving for a long time - at least 2 yrs., since Jack's strokes. And of course, the past 12 mos. have been pure hell...somewhere along the last few months, I began 'letting go' of my husband, finally realizing that he was determined to die soon. Sorry - this probably should have been a diary entry. Sorry I've been out of touch the past week and I hope everyone here is doing okay.

Hugs,

Anna

Anna - I've been thinking about you and hoping you've found some measure of peace. I've never lost a spouse and can't imagine how hard this must be for you. Let yourself cry and anything that will make you feel better cannot be bad. Keeping you and yours in my prayers. Barbo

Anna, I'm so glad you're back. I've missed your wise and compassionate spirit. I hope you're feeling a little better. Give that boy of yours a hug from me. BJ
Life is too short to wake up with regrets. So love the people who treat you right..Forget about, scratch that, Pray for the ones who don't. Believe everything happens for a reason. If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it!-Catherine Yen
