      Flowers to you my good friend. You are in my thoughts. I thought that I would let you know that. I'm sorry that I haven't kept in touch. I hope that life is treating you well. You are in my nightly prayers, as always. You have been through so much. I hope that you are being good to yourself. Celebrate your wonderful friends life. I am starting to feel better about my mom's passing. It's been over 14 months. I still have spells of sadness, but they are becomming less frequent, thank God. You take care my good friend, wishing you and your family the best!!! Clarence and Snowball.

    • Close Bereavement
      Type: Loss of a Friend

      June 5th, 2007 my dearest friend (my one person who pushed me to be better, has known me since birth, was my neighbor, friend, life teacher and more of a mom than my own mom) was brutally murdered in her home during a robbery. The two boys were caught thanks to her bravery and strength.

      Grief Counseling Working / Worked
      This has helped some as I get to talk freely about my dear friend. My therapist knows the deep relationship I had with her and this helps too.
      Prayer Considering
      I was a person with deep beliefs before this happened, now I seem to be a person with deep questions.
      Psychotherapy Working / Worked
      Same therapist as the grief counseling, just blessed to have a therapist who is experienced in grief as well as other life issues.
