Hi, my name is Mandy. This is my first post.
In 2018 I lost my beautiful mum. I’d never felt pain like it and knew my life would never be the same again. Eight month’s later I also lost my brother… I’d not been back at work long and my fit bit kept buzzing, I asked my boss if it would be ok if I used my phone as a family member kept trying to call me. It’s then that I was told that my wonderful fit and healthy brother had had a fatal heart attack. My body felt numb and my head started buzzing, I don’t know how I got home. I started to wail throwing myself all around the house. It couldn’t be true. How could I lose him too. My tears fall as the memory becomes alive again. What will I do? How can I carry on? I thought that my husband would carry me through my despair but a short time later I found that he was having an affair and ultimately I’ve lost him too. I sit here now alone wondering what I’ve done to have to endure this grief ? I feel that my life is over. But I have to keep going for my daughters and my grandchildren. But my mask is beginning to slip. I’m struggling to cope…
