Hi I’m new here. I was struggling to come here and put together in words about my grief because I thought it may be something that people may not understand and that’s not me being rude to anyone by the way.
I’m struggling to cope with the loss of a celebrity, very close to my heart. I properly begun to know and connect with who she was after she unfortunately passed away, I would say approximately 3 years later. One point I thought that people may wonder or say is that she had already passed and I’m feeling upset about it now, along those lines. And I am yes. Because as I’ve grown to know of her and who she was, she has truly inspired me and I feel a profound connection to her. To everything she did, and who she was as a person
I saw her picture I believe on a website I clicked where it was announced she had passed away, back in 2019, 6 years last September from stage four lung cancer, and I was devastated even though I didn’t properly know at the time who she was, because it is a heartbreaking illness to go through, but the way she handled herself and her journey is something I will always eternally and profoundly remember near and incredibly dear to my heart, and over time I researched and found out more about her and who she was and I became infatuated and inspired by her. A few years on after I knew more about her I saw that this beautiful woman who had been starring in a soap for many years was the woman I saw had passed away when I researched who she played in the soap I was watching and I was heartbroken infinitely. Through those years up until now I’ve been struggling to come to terms with and coping with my loss. Really struggling. Over all that time I’ve watched her on screen, the way she looked, the way she acted, inspired, helped people in her real life too, and watching her post about her wonderful life with her family her friends, doing what she loves, was absolutely incredible and I loved her so much and I still do.
People grieve for many different people, pets and for things too and no matter who what it is, it’s still grief and it’s very very profoundly personal. I still struggle with it now and I feel like I’m never going to be able to truly accept or come to terms with what has happened, even 6 years later. She is someone very infinitely special to me and she always will be
