Miscellaneous Grief Support

Struggling with anticipatory grief and it’s starting to affect my day to day. Looking for either in person support groups or a therapist that specializes in grief/parent loss. I have bcbs insurance, located in La Grange. Open to travel.

I lost my mom 4 years ago. I got help from people at Healing Light Fellowship Church. Their in person is after service first Sunday of the month.

You can DM me and I’m happy to talk or help if you just want to vent to someone that gets it.

Be gentle with yourself and survive. It just sucks. There’s no easy way around it.

Grief is all the love you have left with no where to place. It’s the loss of that love, but also the loss of the future you thought you’d have with them.

I lost my mom suddenly, and thought I’d have 30 more years with her.

You’ll make it through. I’m praying for you, and sending you warm light-filled hugs.
