My daughter, 19 and other son, 16 are still going through the motions...I'm trying to be strong for them as is expected of me being a single paren&still Offic Adm..

Close Bereavement
Type: Loss of a ChildI'm a 43 yr old single parent,have been for 15 yrs. Have 3 children...this one still hurts. Daughter-19, son-16;Oldest son 24 crashed & died instantly on Feb.24,2007.He was the most cheerful and charismatic of us all and basically our 'glue' for humor & fun since I've always enforced the discipline, living right, working hard, etc. "so they won't go through what I had to...." My hope is in God's Word alone.
Treatments
- Crying Somewhat Helpful
- I still cry alot on my own when my other 2 children can't hear me. I have to find places other than home.
- Prayer Working / Worked
- I am a church leader; have always been respected and looked up to as a devout and strong Christian amidst my many trials. Don't know how to quite handle this one...
- Reading Working / Worked
- Have ordered many books from parents who've lost children. This has helped alot.
- Writing Somewhat Helpful
- Just started this, but for now feel that writing out my thoughts and feelings has helped me alot.
- Helping Others Somewhat Helpful
- I have found out that when I help others I remove myself from the focus of my problems and feel good being useful. Its a win-win.
Close Breakups & Divorce
I've been divorced for a long time. Been there-done that.My husband left me for another woman over 15 years ago.(He has been miserable since.)I've gone through hell and back trying to be the good single mom and role model for my children. We've gone through the whole bit of lack of money,car,etc. I don't feel I've done it all right but many people commend me for how far I've come. (Not till recently I could also share the same triumph if only I hadn't lost my oldest son to a car accident.)
Treatments
- Love Working / Worked
- Loving my children no matter how frustrated I felt & no matter how many times it was easier to quit and run like my husband did.It's not their fault.God's love saved me!
- Time Working / Worked
- Time has made the world of difference, but more than anything the time I've spent with the Lord.Wish I had the same experience when I started as I do now.I can help you.
Open Fitness Goals
Type: Maintain a workout scheduleI want to feel energetic like I used to a few years ago. I know it's because I've hit middle age (43). I eat healthy but I also have a terrible sweet tooth and do the midnight ice cream craving,etc. I'm not overweight but find myself breathing harder with anything strenous. I joined a gym 2 months ago and have only gone about 4 times. I just can't seem to put it on my priority list and that because they are open 24/7! I work alot-have a demanding job and intense emotional issues at work...
Treatments
- Physical Exercise Not Working
- Have a membership but have only gone 4 times.I got off on a typically good start.I don't know if I just lost interest or if it's partly because I am now grieving my son?
