I buried my best friend today...

I am so sorry about all your losses :sad: Please know that others are thinking of you and holding you in our thoughts :grouphug:
 
I´m so sorry for your loss. May you find peace and comfort in the wonderful memories he left you with.
 

Thanks for all the responses and all the prayers. I am not sleeping or eating right. I am the kitchen manager and volunteer co-ordinator of a local concert group (volunteer position) and it has a concert tonight. I need to put out the food (cakes, cookies ect) for about 250 people tonight. It will be hard but I have to do this. My best friend is the one who got me this "job" and was passionate about it. It is going to be hard and I am tired but I want to do this for him. Thank goodness I have another friend who is going to come out and help me with all the teenage volunteers. It has been a very hard week and I am hoping I don't catch something else until it is all done.

So very sorry to hear this. Hopefully the pain will pass quickly and leave you with many great, happy memories of your freind.

What an awful time you've had of life. Let there be nothing but joy from now on! ((((((Hugs to you))))))
 
tigercat, I'm so sorry. My best friend died of cancer at the age of 21, 16 years ago. I was also sick like you were and I stayed away from her because of it. We never got to really say goodbye. It sucks. I also had my DGM and an aunt die soon after that (and all in all 10 deaths of family members and friends of the family that year). But my best friend's death was a severe blow to my soul I wasn't eating sleeping either and got a wicked case of mono, I'm sure from not taking care of myself and from the purely exhausting task of grieving. Please hang in there. It really will be ok. Feel free to PM me if you want.
 
It has been very comforting to read the responses. Another friend and I talked while I was doing the concert tonight. It was nice. I was also talking to her about how I am nervous about seeing the cardiovascular (?) surgeon this coming Thurs for the aneurysm on my spleen. It may be there is nothing for them to do about it or there may be something. It is scary. I guess I am just tired but I wanted to thank everyone for your concern and kind thoughts.

tigercat, I will pray for good results with the surgeon on Thursday :wave: Take care of yourself :hug:
 
I am so sorry for your loss. Your friend was far too young. I did not know that about stomach cancer, so at the very least, you are getting the word out.
 
It was bladder cancer. You have to use a scope up to really see the cancer. I have had so much to do this week and still more to do. We are having a memorial for him next Sunday. There will be work to do for it. I guess keeping busy is good. I am almost afraid to be alone with nothing to do except be with my thoughts.

Tigercat,

I cannot say that I know how you are feeling, but I can tell you that I am so sorry for everything that you and those around you are going through. Please take care of yourself and know that others are keeping you in their thoughts and prayers. I think it takes courage to face life sometimes, and you are taking a brave step in the right direction expressing your sadness.

Emotional and physical healing take time - and attention to yourself.:grouphug:
