Oh Ginny I'm so sorry. I have lost my mom and my father isn't in the picture, and I am only child, so can't begin to imagine all that loss you have been through.
I was relieved when mum didn't want any visitation or funeral. I hate that visitation stuff too.
I really don't know whatelse to say except my thoughts and prayers are with you. Please be gentle with yourself, give yourself time to grieve, and post here and read here as often as you can or want to, it really does help.

((((Ginny))))

I am so very sorry for your loss. I tried posting you a message last night, but my dumb computer and internet were not cooperating at all.

Just remember to take care of yourself sweetie. Eat good, try to get sleep, keep hydrated and try to exersize, even if you just take a walk.

Yes, the vistations are rough, some people look at it as closure and start remembering the loved one and happy memories and even laugh at funny things that have happened. Somehow we find the strength deep in ourselves to do what is needed to be done. All these feelings you are having are normal. Remember this is still raw and an open wound. We are all here for you hon. These ladies are wonderful and helpful and really understanding. We are glad you found us because in return we have found you.

Love ya
Gail

Ginny,

I'm so sorry for your heartbreaking loss. You have been through a lot in your life and I know this must be terribly hard on you. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I recently lost a best friend to cancer and I feel coming here will help a great deal.

You are taking the right step. Take care of yourself. Use this time right now for you.

Love,
Luv

Dear Ginny,
It is hard to lose a loved one at any age,my prayer's are with you. I lost my parent's to cancer, my father died when I was only 9 years old and then I lost my mother when I was 3 months pregnant with my last child at the age of 32. I am sorry you lost your sister but mostly it sounds like you lost a very good friend. I will keep you in my prayer's, please take care of yourself. Give yourself time to grieve and time to heal.
God Bless You
