Feb 2012

My Dad, and Gram died recently September, 2011. It's ok with what you feel. I'm grieving in a differn't way. My Mom is in CA with my brother, and I'm taking care of my parents dog. When I called thier cell phone, it got my Dads voice on the phone. And like a wave from the ocean, I was swept away with grief, saddnes. I left a voice mail of crying, and apology. I came to this forum to vent, and let out my feelings, it's working..
