Members Popular Post Racecarkitten Posted June 10, 2023 Members Popular Post Report Share Posted June 10, 2023 Today is the memorial for Wayne and I am overwhelmed. I don't feel ready yet to do this. His family suggested today and I never stopped to think about it, I just went with it. It's too soon for me emotionally. I'm shocked by "caring family members " who are choosing not to come. As of last night I was still hearing from friends I didn't expect to come that they will see me today. Feeling lost, alone, afraid, blessed, loved, grateful and a lot of other emotions all at once. I want to scream at everyone to give me time to adjust. The last memorial I attended was for my mother, and he was the person who got me through it. I don't know how I'm going to do this today. Trying to adjust to my "new normal " and doing well in other ways, but not with this. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gail 8588 Posted June 10, 2023 Members Report Share Posted June 10, 2023 It is overwhelming! I don't know that it would be any less overwhelming with more time. Accept the help and support you are offerred from those who come. It is sometimes comes from people you didn't expect (and others you expected support from sometimes disappoint). Today is a get through this moment day. Breathe. Try to eat a bit. Hydrate. We will be thinking of you today and sending you strength.

Moderators KayC Posted June 10, 2023 Moderators Report Share Posted June 10, 2023 One moment at a time and it's okay to cry. Anyone who'd think different can take a flying leap. We'll be praying for you, Hon! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members RichS Posted June 11, 2023 Members Report Share Posted June 11, 2023 Right now, you have the right to feel a wide range of different emotions. Hope that you went there with your own true feelings; not having to please anyone by trying to "keep it together" when you weren't ready to do this right now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Popular Post Racecarkitten Posted June 12, 2023 Author Members Popular Post Report Share Posted June 12, 2023 Thanks everyone for your support. I made it through Saturday, even managed to smile and laugh a little at the stories. My last out of town guest left this morning, and it was so difficult to say goodbye. I miss Wayne so very much, and after all the activities and conversations this weekend it seems like an even bigger hole has been left in my life than I thought before. Tonight is a night to let more tears out. Hopefully tomorrow will be easier. Your replies are appreciated in a way only those here in this forum can possibly understand. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
