ORIGINAL: sloguy02246 For what it's worth, I have been in a similar situation and can understand what your world must feel like right now. I wish I could give you sage advice for dealing with it, but in the end there is no "silver bullet" for the hurt. The only thing that lessens that type of pain is the passage of time. My condolences and sympathy to you along with the wish that you find a place of peace. Bita, I also have been where you are. The quote above is how I found it to be. I will only add this: It is a priority that you shift your focus to the care of you. You are not only exhausted, a lot of people in your position have drawn down their reserves to the point that they can easily become ill. I speak from experience. So eat not only the indulgent stuff to heal your spirit but the veggies and whole foods to build yourself up. Get some sunshine and exercise while the weather is still warm. Make sure to get your sleep. Now that your father is at rest, you take care of his daughter. You have earned it and it is what he would want. My mailbox is always open for you, or if you feel like talking, let me know.
